Deputies from the St. Tammany Sheriff’s Office will conduct a DWI checkpoint this weekend at an undisclosed location in St. Tammany Parish.
The checkpoint is part of the state-wide proactive “Drive Sober Get Pulled Over July 4th Special Wave,” aimed at combatting impaired driving.
The manpower for this initiative is funded by a grant from the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission.
Sheriff Randy Smith says that if you choose to consume alcohol, don’t drive. Have a designated driver or call a cab. If all options fail, call them and they will find you a safe ride home.
