Today in while heading home from a family gathering the traffic on the main route that we were traveling came to a slow crawl. Pretty soon I saw the signs posted sobriety checkpoint ahead.
Not only that but they had several cruisers parked at the side of the road watching the traffic to be sure no one made a U-turn trying to avoid the test.
Seemed to me like they were pulling over the nervous looking drivers or it may have just been a random count, dunno. I personally wasn't waved over.
Let me also say that I don't drink and drive. If I have a beer while out, my wife takes the wheel, as she rarely drinks.
For just a split second I felt nervous. Then I relaxed knowing that these officers were out, trying their best, to head off accidents that may have happened from impared drivers.
I have never seen one of these random stops before, ever. How do you guys feel knowing the law is watching this Holiday?
