Ohio’s Highway Patrol planned twice as many sobriety checkpoints this year as it had in 2010 thanks to a federal grant. More than a quarter of those took place this past weekend. The patrol planned 27 checkpoints this weekend. Increasingly, they are seeing people driving dangerously because of narcotics both illegal and prescription. In some cases officers can look at the direction the suspect’s eyes are moving to determine whether they are intoxicated on alcohol versus pills.
The Cleveland Police department is continuing the trend on cracking down on drivers and announced today that they will be doing a license checkpoint on Monday. The checkpoint is between the hours of 10:00 a.m and 14:00 p.m. on St Clair between East 93rd Street and East 96th.
