NH Sobriety Checkpoints/DUI Roadblocks

It happens every so often, and there is not much you can do about it. You're driving down the road, and all of a sudden, the cars ahead of you begin to slow down. You roll down your window and stick your head out. Then you see the blue flashing lights emanating from the top of a police car and spot an officer walking towards you with a flashlight. This is when you realize you've driven up to a NH sobriety checkpoint.

All but ten states allow sobriety checkpoints, and each state maintains its own procedure for carrying them out. Some common components of a sobriety checkpoint include the following:

  • Checkpoints occur in a high traffic area or a location populated by restaurants and bars.
  • Drivers receive proper advance notice, such as warning cones or flashing lights.
  • A police officer satisfactorily trained in conducting sobriety checks should be visible to the general public.
  • The sobriety checkpoint does not cause or exacerbate heavy traffic patterns.
  • There should be a well outlined process before setting up the road blocks.
  • Sobriety checkpoints are one component of a community's effort to curb or eradicate driving under the influence.
