On Super Bowl Sunday, the Metropolitan Police Department’s Traffic Bureau will be working with the Northwest and Spring-Valley Area Commands to conduct a “Sobriety Checkpoint” in the northwest Las Vegas Valley, according to a press release.
The mult-jurisdictional event will focus on both drug and/or alcohol-impaired drivers, and will serve to identify impaired drivers before they get involved in a collision, according to the release. The checkpoint will be held between 5 p.m. and 3 a.m. Sunday, February 3, 2019.
Super Bowl party-goers can also use AAA’s Tipsy Tow program to get home safely Sunday.
