7/24/2008 - KPD to step up sobriety checkpoints - LĪHU‘E – Kaua‘i Police Department officials announced today plans to step up sobriety checkpoints as well as enforcement of speeding violations. According to Lt. Mark Scribner, the police department will be increasing the number of checkpoints around the island this year as part of the 52/12 statewide campaign, and will be checking for those who are driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, along with other traffic violations. “Last year, there were nine traffic fatalities on Kaua‘i, in which four were alcohol related,” said Scribner. “This year we’ve already had eight traffic deaths; we need to greatly reduce these statistics.” Scribner hopes that the checkpoints will help keep drunk drivers and those high on drugs off the streets. “We want to make our roads as safe as possible for the community,” he said.
