Michigan law enforcement agencies stopped nearly 15,000 vehicles and arrested 169 suspected drunken drivers as part of a late-summer crackdown. Officers from 150 local police departments, sheriffs offices and Michigan State Police posts also issued more than 4,500 seat belt and child restraint citations during Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over, which ran Aug. 15 through the Labor Day weekend. During the three-week effort, officers also issued nearly 1,200 citations for speeding, 550 citations for driving with a suspended license and nearly 900 citations to uninsured motorists. Officers arrested 243 fugitives and made 277 other misdemeanor arrests. After seeing all these arrests and citations, do you think sobriety checkpoints are worth the hassle? If you are still opposed, tell us why.
