In Wilmington, Dover or Rehoboth on Saturday? Don't drive drunk

Wilmington, Bear, Dover, Rehoboth Beach and Seaford.  The five DUI checkpoints will occur on Saturday: two each in New Castle and Sussex counties and one in Kent County.  Past locations of checkpoints, according to the user-contributed website www.duiblock.com, included Kirkwood Street and Del. 10 in Dover, US 40 and US 301 in Newark, Long Neck Road in Millsboro, Coastal Highway in Rehoboth Beach, and Elkton Road and Telegraph Road in Wilmington. DUI multiple-time losers: Child in car when Delaware man stopped for 12th DUI Driver in fatal pedestrian crash charged with 3rd DUI Sixth DUI, marijuana lands Millsboro man behind bars Elsmere man charged with seventh DUI after crash The Office of Highway Safety revised its 15-year-old Checkpoint Strikeforce effort in July to become more effective, officials added. "To better allocate our resources, we changed the [Checkpoint Strikeforce] model by conducting multiple statewide checkpoints on select nights," said Jana Simpler, Office of Highway Safety director. "This is helping ensure that impaired drivers are removed from our roadways and everyone arrives to their destination safely." What are your rights when arriving at a police checkpoint Here is some information regarding police checkpoints, from findlaw.com Two previous checkpoints that used the revised model this year yielded 28 drunk driving arrests. July's checkpoints garnered three arrests in New Castle County, one arrest in Kent and seven in Sussex County. September's event yielded seven arrests in New Castle County, four in Kent County and six in Sussex. Contact Esteban Parra at (302) 324-2299, eparra@delawareonline.com or Twitter @eparra3.
