The Athens-Clarke County Police Department (ACCPD) will conduct vehicle checkpoints on Thursday, June 13, from 8 p.m. to midnight.
The department says these checkpoints are part of its ongoing efforts to improve road safety by encouraging drivers to slow down, stay alert, and avoid impaired driving.
For officer safety, the exact locations of the checkpoints will not be released in advance.
During the operation, officers will distribute educational flyers with local traffic statistics and information on why ACCPD conducts checkpoints. After the event, the department will share details about the operation through a media release and social media.
