The Missouri State Highway Patrol has announced that sometime during the month of July Troop H will conduct a sobriety checkpoint in Livingston County and a DWI saturation in Caldwell County.

Capt. James McDonald, commanding officer of Troop H said the area selected for enforcement are based on a high number of drinking-related crashes, high number of contacts with drivers who have been drinking, and officers’ input as to probable contact with DWI violators.

“The Missouri State Highway Patrol is dedicated to removing impaired drivers from Missouri roadways,” McDonald said. “Anytime your plans include alcohol, please have a sober designated driver.”
