The New Orleans police department will conduct a sobriety checkpoint Thursday (April 17) evening in Orleans Parish.
According to a statement from the department, the checkpoint will start about 9 p.m. and run through 5 a.m. Friday.

Drivers are reminded to keep all proper documentation --including their driver's license and proof of registration--inside their vehicles so as to avoid any unnecessary delays. "I would like to remind all drivers to always drink responsibly and use a designated driver," NOPD Superintendent Ronal Serpas said in a prepared statement.

The location of the checkpoint is not made public.

You have an issue with having to have your DL on your person while operating a vehicle?

I just find it funny that you "LOL" at showing your license when an officer asks for it. Surely you could have found something funnier to say about checkpoints.

Not sure what freedom has to do with you LOling at showing your license when an officer asks for it. You guys try way too hard to get infringed on.

You can get a DWI on a bike, horse or riding lawnmower for that matter.

Scenario: You're walking down the street in the French Quarter. A random stranger stops you and asks to see your driver's license. What do you do?

Your scenario is stupid. You're not walking at the roadblock, you're driving. Driving is not a right. The checkpoint is constitutional. Not infringing on your freedom, Dumbass.

I agree that cops can sometimes go too far, but you're trying way too hard to start needless shite.

Not in Louisiana [State v. Carr, 761 So.2d 1271 (2000)]. I could get a public intox if I was blasted and swerving across the road or if I was buzzed and the cop wanted to be a dick, but not a DWI.
