(November 25, 2013) Jackson TN – As part of ongoing efforts to ensure the safety of the citizens of Jackson, the Jackson Police Department will be performing Sobriety Checkpoints and increased traffic enforcement throughout the city this Saturday and Sunday.
There will be a Sobriety Checkpoint on Saturday, November 30, 2013, from 11:30 PM until 1:15 AM on Ridgecrest at Campbell, and one Sunday, December 1, 2013 from 1:45 AM until 3:30 AM on Hollywood at Old Hickory.
During these Sobriety Checkpoints and increased traffic enforcement, officers will concentrate their efforts on removing impaired drivers from the roadways. However, as non-compliance with the safety belt and child restraint laws place people in danger these laws will be vigorously enforced as well.
This project funded solely by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Tennessee Governor's Highway Safety Office
