South Carolina Sobriety Checkpoints Law:
South Carolina Sobriety checkpoints are a valuable
component of a comprehensive enforcement strategy aimed
at deterring alcohol-impaired driving. Research shows
that the key to effective deterrence is the public's
perception of the likelihood of being caught in violation
of the law. The public identifies checkpoint activity
with increased risk of apprehension. Checkpoints are
conducted weekly.
