The Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) has revealed plans for a series of sobriety checkpoints set to take place on Friday, July 18, 2025, in various counties as part of their commitment to enhancing highway safety. These checkpoints are strategically positioned to help identify and prevent impaired driving, a significant concern for road safety.
Troopers will be stationed at several key locations throughout the state. In Moore County, the checkpoint will be located on State Route 50 at the 10.5 mile marker. Bedford County will see a checkpoint on Huffman Road, situated near the Fish Hatchery. In Lawrence County, the checkpoint will be established on U.S. Highway 43 South at the 2.9 mile marker. Lastly, Hickman County will host a checkpoint on State Route 7 at the 3 mile marker.
The primary aim of these checkpoints is to both detect and deter instances of impaired driving. The THP urges all drivers to exercise caution and responsibility while behind the wheel, emphasizing that driving under the influence endangers not only the driver but also everyone sharing the road.
