Checkpoint Strikeforce
The Checkpoint Strikeforce
campaign of the
District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia (along with
the mid-Atlantic
states of Delaware, Pennsylvania
and West Virginia) is a highly
focused, zero tolerance, continuous, state-to-state effort
to bust drunk drivers and bust them good.
Every week from July 4, 2007 through January 4, 2008,
DUI checkpoints will be conducted by law enforcement officials
on designated roadways throughout the mid-Atlantic region.
In addition, and as a means of supporting this unprecedented
public safety effort, the Washington
Regional Alcohol Program (WRAP) is coordinating a more
than three-quarters of a million dollar
public education
campaign
in DC, MD and
VA.
Checkpoint Stikeforce is the impaired driving mobilization
campaign for NHTSA Region 3. NHTSA's national impaired driving
mobilization campaign is Drunk Driving — Over the Limit. Under Arrest. |
