TROOP C - NEWS RELEASE
August 21, 2012
DWI Checkpoint Scheduled For Tonight In Terrebonne Parish

Tonight, a DWI checkpoint is scheduled to be conducted within the Troop C area. The checkpoint will be conducted by the Louisiana State Police Troop C and some of our other local law enforcement partners. The checkpoint will begin at approximately 9 pm.

The consequences of drinking and driving can be costly no matter how many drinks you have consumed. The task of stopping impaired drivers is a joint effort of law enforcement agencies and the public. By never allowing an impaired driver to get behind the wheel of a vehicle and reporting dangerous drivers to law enforcement, the public can play an important role in the reduction of crashes caused by impaired drivers. Making poor decisions in a vehicle such as driving impaired, driving while distracted, or not wearing a seat belt leads to serious injuries and deaths every day across the state. Making the responsible decision can mean the difference between life and death.

Contact the Louisiana State Police by dialing *LSP or (*577) on your cell phone to report impaired drivers and dangerous roadway conditions.
