Highway Patrol Checkpoints This Week

Hendry, Glades And Lee County Safety Checks

LABELLE, FL. -- The Florida Highway Patrol will be conducting driver license and vehicle inspection checkpoints
at the following locations during the week through January 16.

Lee County: Sunshine north of Lee Blvd. and North River Road east of the Hendry County Line, South Road east of U.S. 41
Hendy County: Cowboy Way west of State Road 29
Glades County: State Road 78 west of U.S. 27

Recognizing the danger presented to the public by defective vehicle equipment, troopers will concentrate their efforts on vehicles being operated with defects such as bad brakes, worn tires and defective lighting equipment. In addition, attention will be directed to drivers who would violate the driver license laws of Florida. The Patrol has found these checkpoints to be an effective means of enforcing the equipment and driver license laws of Florida while ensuring the protection of all motorists.
