'This checkpoint location, like many others, was chosen based on a history of DUI crashes and arrests,' LPD said. 'The primary purpose of the checkpoints is not to make arrests but to promote public safety by deterring drivers from driving impaired.'
LPD added, 'During the checkpoint, officers will look for signs of impaired drivers that may be under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs.'
Drivers charged with a first-time DUI face an average of $13,500 in fines and penalties and a suspended driver's license.
