> never said they did but i sense the tone of this thread from some of the posters… “plenty of room to turn around” etc etc… no need to turn around if ur not drunk… yeah its a PIA to wait…but its a bigger PIA to got to jail, to go to a funeral…etc etc…

I agree. That is why I went through the checkpoint. I don’t drive drunk and I knew that my alcohol that I had consumed was out of my system, so I had no problem with going through the checkpoint. My point was that the police need to make it way less obvious that a checkpoint is coming up. The flashing lights and spot lights are so obvious that if someone is drunk, they will just turn around.
