Ugh! Oh no about Hoover Dam, that’s so sad you didn’t get to go! IMO that it’s all a sham to hassle US citizens.
I don’t leave the house much (work at home) and don’t drink a drop ever. But, if I saw these DUI checkpoints, I would turn around. We have the home team advantage in the desert, people can see the checkpoints from a long way off, even in the city.
