Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office Announces DWI & Seatbelt Checkpoint November 30
Published November 26, 2019
From CPSO – In a continuing effort to keep the citizens of Calcasieu Parish safe, the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office will be conducting a combination DWI checkpoint and a seatbelt checkpoint at an undisclosed location in the parish on Saturday, November 30.
This checkpoint will target individuals driving under the influence of alcohol and/or narcotics, which has been proven to be very effective in discouraging citizens from driving while impaired and people are more likely to designate a driver when they know sobriety checkpoints are being conducted. The checkpoint will also target people who are not wearing their seatbelt.
This checkpoint is funded by a grant from the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission.
