ABI started a campaign against sobriety checkpoints last week prior to the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. So far, our efforts have resulted in a story on CBSnews.com, articles in the Courier-Times and News-Post, and stories on NBC and CBS affiliates in California, Florida, Maine, Mississippi, and Virginia. In addition, the Kansas City Star, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, and the New Jersey’s Courier Post published ABI op-eds against checkpoints.
I was stopped at a sobriety checkpoint in Arkansas and had an open container in vehicle. I was cited for “drinking on highway” and released, yet the officer did not observe me drink.
