Public Safety Checkpoints Announced



The Mount Pleasant Police Department will be out in force again this year as part of the South Carolina Department of Public Safety’s annual “Sober or Slammer” campaign on drunk driving. Please use a ride-hailing service such as Uber or Lyft, call a taxi, or use a designated driver. We want everyone to arrive alive! Safety checkpoints will be at the following locations: December 28, 2018 10:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. - SC 517 between Rifle Range Rd. and Hungryneck Blvd. 11:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. - Coleman Blvd near Pelzer Dr. December 31, 2018 11:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. - Longpoint Rd. near Egypt Rd. We always get asked as to why we publicize where and when we conduct public safety checkpoints. The United States Supreme Court issued guidelines in 1990 making it necessary.
