Sobriety checkpoint Nov. 22 near Christiana Elementary School
Increases in traffic crashes prompted the Tennessee Highway Patrol to sponsor a sobriety checkpoint Nov. 22 on U.S. Highway 231 (Shelbyville Highway), at THP lieutenant said.
The checkpoint will be from 10 p.m. to midnight near Christiana Elementary School, said Lt. Shawn Boyd.
“This is a high crash corridor,” Boyd said. “This is the start of the holiday season, too.”
The checkpoint enforcement will hopefully remind drivers to slow down and refrain from impaired driving.
Officers from Rutherford County Traffic Safety Task Force will join the THP at the checkpoint.
