TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - Local law enforcement agencies are banding together to conduct a safety and sobriety checkpoint Thursday night.
The Tallahassee Police Department and the Leon County Multi-Agency DUI Strike Force (LCSO, FSU PD, FAMU PD, and FHP) have announced that they will be hosting a checkpoint in the 2500 block of West Tennessee Street.
The checkpoint will take place from 11:30 p.m. until 3 a.m.
They said that the checkpoint is used for the purpose of detecting drivers who are too impaired to operate a motor vehicle, vehicles with faulty equipment, and those drivers operating a vehicle without a valid license.
The checkpoint will be well marked by signage, marked patrol vehicles, and uniformed officers and is designed to have a minimal impact on traffic flow.
