Although it is extremely unwise for a drunk driver to assume that he or she can navigate the highways to get home without possibly encountering a DUI checkpoint, many foolishly try this late night gambit. Due to that known fact, some drinking drivers can benefit from knowing an area or route where law officer roadblocks are not likely to be “set up” by local police.
But, determining the age-old question of “where are the roadblocks near me?” is not an easy one to answer.
While many roadblock apps tell you that they have valuable data, the very nature of roadblocks and license checkpoints is that (in Georgia) these are not routinely publicized because Georgia’s appellate courts have not yet ruled that pre-roadblock publicity is mandated by the Constitution.
