[QUOTE="onpoint!, post: 248359, member: 2703"] not a fan of checkpoints, but less a fan of drunk drivers risking lives of everyone on or near the road. driving is a privilege, not a right - (unlike your home-invasion scenario) this is one of the costs of exercising that privilege. I've driven 50 years, haven't gone through a checkpoint yet, so it isn't like they're on every corner making you late for your big date. sending officers out on a dui focus, looking for probable cause (no, they cant just stop you) to pull you over is not more effective. Neither are highly effective, for that matter; hence, it takes a combination of efforts to 1. educate the driving public, 2. tip the probability scale of being stopped if driving under the influence, and maybe convince a few knuckleheads to get a ride instead.
