DUI Checkpoint in Larimer County
Department: Sheriff
Release Date: Aug 14, 2008
Contact Information:
Kathy Messick, Larimer County Sheriff's Office
Phone: (970) 498-5189 Pager: (970) 419-5404

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Impaired driving is one of America's most frequently committed, deadliest, and preventable crimes. With that in mind, the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office will be conducting a roving DUI checkpoint on Friday August 15, 2008 from 7:00 P.M. to 2:00 A.M.

The checkpoint will be at various locations in Larimer County and is intended to remove impaired and intoxicated drivers from Larimer County roadways.

These checkpoints are paid for with grant funds received from Law Enforcement Assistance Fund (LEAF) to provide the extra man hours of patrol. The grants are funded with fees paid by convicted drunken drivers and therefore no taxpayer funds are used.

“As always, drivers are encouraged to use good sound judgment and avoid consuming alcohol before driving,” said Deputy Ted Wilson of the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office DUI Enforcement. “If not, they will be apprehended with zero tolerance enforcement.”

Add another county to the douche canoe:

Members of the Weld County DUI Task Force will conduct sobriety checkpoints at locations throughout Weld during the upcoming National Crackdown Labor Day Enforcement Period that starts today and runs through Sept. 2.

The Weld County DUI Task Force consists of law enforcement officers from many different agencies, according to a press release.

The Larimer County Sheriff's Office also is conducting a roving DUI checkpoint today from 7 p.m.-2 a.m.

The checkpoints are paid for with grants from the Law Enforcement Assistance Fund, which raises money through fees paid by drunken drivers.

Easy solution, don't drink and drive....

DUIs, for those found guilty, are incredibly expensive. Doesn't seem worth it to me.

I fail to see why this is a bad thing.

Lets see, DUI is about $10,000 by the time you are done with everything.
A new sled is about $10,000.
You do the math and one is more fun to ride than BUBA riding you.

I am all for getting the drunks off the road. If you realy want to give the cash to somone give it to ME. I can use a new sled since mine is 20 years old and has 9,760 miles on it.

If you drink and drive, you deserve to be caught. I have had friends die because of drunk drivers, I feel no pity for those who try to slip one over and get busted!

 

[skibreeze]

I hate it when I get speeding tickets, I guess if I hated it enough, I'd quit speeding.

If you don't want to get busted for DUI, don't drink and drive.

 

[Ex-Member]

On second thought... alcoholics pay my salary.....

Go ahead and drive drunk. Do it a lot, and get caught a few times.

 

[black swan]

cheers!

....yo no drinky and drivey.easy buy the booze and go home...and get blitzed....costs me $40...CAN DO ANYTIME I want....!!

DUI Check points are crap, a bunch of lame azzed kids that got the (rap beat out of them in High school, now they became police and think they are tough. And .08 what a joke.

Anti-hero: I must be one of those lame azzed kids. What do you do for a job, I'd love to put out some blanket statements about your profession. And before you post about something you don't know do a little reasearch (like what probable cause is). And if you and I were to meet in person I don't think you'd back your statements. (And we're the one's thinking we're tough?)
ps-maybe someone's been in graybar a few too many times... Boo hoo! Stupid police!

My sister was killed by a drunk driver who crossed the center line and hit her head on...BAC of .09...what a joke, huh!!

If you have such a drinking problem that you HAVE to drink and drive, maybe you need to seek some help before you kill someone...I hope they get you off the roads before you do.

I'll be at the snow show so if you think you can enlighten me on the intoxyliar 5000en that would be lovely, but for some reason I think am hearing big words about a topic that I will most likely school you on! See you have would have to understand vapor pressure and molarity(nope that has nothing to do with teeth). So while you can make some slam to my profession that is fine, I really do not care what you think. Snow show pony on up and I'll even let you toss the can, without paying a buck, but my guess is that is too lame azzed for such a cool guy like yourself?

Wait, Denver Rton I guess were both lame azzed kids, except you are a couple years younger in lame azzed childhood.

 

[DenverR1]

Wow, big words behind a computer. Even though your post made no sense at all one thing I got from it is that you feel you are somewhat intelligent. But your simple grammar mistakes betray you. And I won't be able to enlighten you on the intoxilyzer because I work in the gang unit. I don't do DUI's. But the fact that you think you know so much about it says your public defender told you a thing or two on your multiple DUI arrests. From the last couple posts from people I'm gathering that they don't agree with your argument on drinking and driving. So do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. If you insist on meeting in person to talk I'm definitely open.

 

[Anti-Hero]

Ok the Snow show is a snowmobile expo 58th and I-25, read the thread it is in the same section. You work in the gang unit but in DUI's, but for some reason you are the snowest DUI czar? Don't tell me to leave snowest, look at the profile I was here long before you. And spelling and grammer, who cares, I am not at work. The fact of the matter is why don't you stroll on down to the DUI folks and ask anyone of them or better yet ask the new Fred Maxwell CDPHE, I forgot his name, how barometric pressure will effect your intoxyliar 5000en that is calibrated with a solution. If you think some public defender knows anything about barometric pressure relating to a DUI, you should really think again. SO if I said that from 96 to 06 of the appoximate 450000 dui's in CO. 395000 of them tested with an intoxyliar, those 395000 have had inacurate results due to pressure laws, you would just simply say BS becuase you are too lazy to figure out why. who knows you could be talking with a CIH. Is there a profession cert for the gang unit, Hmm NO I would guess.

And sure come on down to the snow show, i am always up to meet sledders, but I think it would be best to leave opinions aside and have a good time like we always do at the snow show, I'll buy you a beer even.

 

[DenverR1]

Wow, you had a great public defender! And tonight I will not sleep well because every drunk driver that the police took off the street is innocent! I'm going to resign tomorrow, I promise. Take your own advise, leave your opinions about police officers who risk their lives every day, aside. To anyone else who has been reading this BS or to people like Modsledr who LOST A LOVED ONE BECAUSE OF A DRUNK DRIVER I am truly sorry for your loss.

 

[Anti-Hero]

Just too dumb to research the facts for yourself. I did not say innocent, I said inaccurate results. Like your HGN 77% accurate if performed correctly with a point system. How about +- 20% on that intoxyliar. I am not against DUI’s but I am against methods of conviction and testing for and BrAC that are incorrect. Just because you disagree, you think I am wrong, but you are too lazy to, post a fact, a real number, or something. When you find a public defender or lawyer that knows any of this let me know, and if you ever find a police person that has half a clue about pressure and molarity, Amen! Cause Fred Maxwell ran the dept. and did not understand.

Anyone?
