The Cass County Sheriff's Office will be conducting a sobriety checkpoint during the month of August.
This special enforcement is designed to make roadways safer and increase
public awareness of the hazards of drinking and driving. "By removing
intoxicated drivers from the roadways we can decrease the potential for
motor vehicle accidents," said Sheriff Dwight Diehl.
Partial funding for this project comes from a traffic safety grant
program administered by the Highway Safety Division of the Missouri
Department of Transportation. Normal traffic flow will not be severely
interrupted, and delays will be minimal. The patience, cooperation, and
understanding of all motorists will help make the highways safer for all
drivers and passengers.
