When you come to a DUI checkpoint and you make a U-turn and you leave, there is going to be a cop on a motorcycle that is going to pull you over. So, if you come to a checkpoint, don’t do that. Don’t make a U-turn, just get in line. And when you come up to the front of the line, they ask you (they being the police) have you been drinking tonight. There is one answer. Only one answer. And that answer is No. I don’t care if you have a bottle of Jack Daniels in your hand. I don’t care if you have a bud lite in your hand and you give it to the cop. No. No. No drinking. Because guess what is going to happen if you say you have had one drink, or two drinks. They are going to say, “step out of the car and come over here”. So do not admit to drinking and driving. The best advice I can give you is don’t drink and drive, take an Uber, take a Lyft, or just plain old don’t drink. Thank you.
