BERLIN — The Berlin Police Department applied for, and was granted, a Superior Court Petition to conduct a Sobriety Checkpoint. The Sobriety Checkpoint is the most effective method of detecting, apprehending and ultimately deterring the impaired operator.
A review of records within our department along with national statistics through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has shown that the use of alcohol by individuals who operate motor vehicles has resulted in an alarming number of deaths and personal injury accidents. The numbers have been climbing over the past several years. Therefore, in an effort to maintain safe roads in the jurisdiction of Berlin, the Berlin Police Department will be conducting a Sobriety Checkpoint in the Berlin area during the week of Aug. 30.
