I know a guy who was picked up 6 times at DWI checkpoints, has served time for DWI, has admitted it's all true, and now we see him walking around town drunk, because he doesn't have a ride. He's says he can't and won't stop drinking. I'm kind of glad for these checkpoints

You just proved they don't keep drunks off the streets, not if he was able to be picked up 5 more times.

You know your statement makes no sense. A checkpoint takes the drunk driver off the road and charges him for that offense.

Do you want to give the Police power to follow this guy 24/7 for a DWI? Because if you don’t, which I don’t, you can’t stop him from drinking and getting into a car again. But without those five checkpoint arrests he could have killed 5 times.

He has now served time and has no license. But you can’t stop him from hopping into a borrowed car and driving drunk again.
