The Franklin County DUI Task Force will operate two sobriety checkpoints today in Jackson Township.
Checkpoint 1: US-62, south of Rensch Road & Checkpoint 2: Columbus Street, west of Hoover Road
Checkpoint operations will run from 8:00 PM to 1:30 AM, weather permitting.
The Task Force reminds motorists that if they plan to consume alcohol, they should arrange for a designated driver or make other safe transportation plans. Impaired driving continues to be a leading cause of serious-injury and fatal crashes, and these checkpoints are part of ongoing efforts to reduce alcohol-related incidents throughout Franklin County.
