Police Drink Drive checks in Southport this festive season

We are conducting a number of drink/drug drive check sites across Southport  and throughout the festive season. Please think before you drive. We’re committed to making your roads safer.

We will be out and about over the coming month targeting those who get behind the wheel while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Officers will be stopping drivers at checkpoints and conducting roadside breath and drug tests, as well as targeting people where intelligence suggests they may be driving under the influence.

We know everybody will want to indulge in some festive cheer – especially after missing out on many of the usual celebrations last year – but we want to make it clear we will not tolerate anybody putting lives in danger.

Anybody found to be over the limit a will face the full force of the law.
