By now we all know that sobriety checkpoints are a fact of life.  If you live a social life, and have been out late at night, chances are you have been stopped by the the police and subjected to some degree of roadside interrogation in an attempt to determine whether you were drinking or not.

DUI Video

As a Montgomery County DUI lawyer, I have defended a lot of clients that were ensnared in these checkpoints.  Very often, I am called upon to argue the lawfulness of these checkpoint in court as part of my client’s defense.  As a public service, here is a video from good ole Rutherford, Tennessee which you will find to be self explanatory.  Suffice is it to say, this video is an example of how NOT to conduct a sobriety checkpoint.  Enjoy.
