(Dearborn County, Ind.) – Indiana State Police will be screening for intoxicated drivers during a sobriety checkpoint in Dearborn County.

The checkpoint will take place Friday, May 18 and Saturday, May 19 at an undisclosed location within the county.

All drivers passing through the checkpoint will be asked to stop while troopers determine if further investigation is necessary. Motorists will only be detained briefly and will be asked to present their licenses and vehicle registrations to troopers.

“The purpose of sobriety checkpoints is to remove those motorists from the highways who are alcohol or drug impaired and pose a danger to all who use the roadways. Impaired drivers are responsible for billions of dollars in property damage, person injury, and death annually,” the ISP announcement states.
