Press Release

Date: 13 January 2015
From: Lt. Ron Adams, Traffic Safety Coordinator
RE: Alcohol Countermeasures Team

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, 17 January 2015, from 2330 until 0115 on F.E Wright Drive at Ridgecrest Road Extended, and one Sunday, 18 January 2015 from 0145 until 0345 on South Highland in the 1000 Block.

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 Tennessee Governor's Highway Safety Office.
