Patrol plans low-manpower, multi-agency OVI sobriety checkpoint
COLUMBUS – The Ohio State Highway Patrol announced today that troopers will operate a low-manpower, multi-agency OVI sobriety checkpoint to deter and intercept impaired drivers this week.
The county where the checkpoint will take place will be announced the day prior to the checkpoint, and the location will be announced the morning of the checkpoint.
There were 435 OVI-related fatal crashes in which 474 people were killed last year in Ohio. State troopers made 25,520 OVI arrests last year in combating these dangerous drivers. OVI checkpoints are designed not only to deter impaired driving, but to proactively remove these dangerous drivers from Ohio’s roadways.
If you plan to consume alcohol, designate a driver or make other travel arrangements before you drink. Don’t let another life be lost for the senseless and selfish act of getting behind the wheel impaired.
Operational support for the sobriety checkpoint will be provided by local law enforcement agencies.
For Immediate Release: September 21, 2009
