The checkpoint was conducted in the 2700 Garnett Avenue between 10:00 p.m. Friday and 3:00 a.m. Saturday.
Of the 1,503 drivers who traveled through the checkpoint, 855 were screened, 22 drivers underwent sobriety tests and 12 cars were impounded. "DUI/Driver License checkpoints have been shown to lower DUI deaths and injuries.
