Kentucky State Police (KSP) will be conducting traffic safety checkpoints throughout the region over the next few weeks.
Officials indicate the checkpoints are used to check motorists for compliance with motor vehicle laws including driving under the influence. KSP utilizes the safety checkpoints to promote safety for all motorists and to provide a deterrent for those who violate laws contained in the Kentucky Revised Statutes.
Drivers encountering a traffic safety checkpoint are requested to have their operator’s license, vehicle registration receipt, and proof of insurance accessible. Drivers with the information in hand, with no violations of the law, and minimal roadway congestion can expect to be delayed no more than a few minutes.
State law requires that safety checkpoint locations be released, you can find them below.
