Re: DUI Checkpoint to Run This Weekend on Dunlawton
Why would you publicize where the checkpoints are going to be? It seems like the drunk drivers would just take another route. Information like that is not made public here in GA.

Announcing time and place of DUI checkpoint
It makes no sense to announce DUI check points. You now just diverted the drinkers to other routes. What's the purpose of the announcement?
It's a great way to catch people under the influence unannounced. Sad that it's necessary but helpful.
