The Tennessee Highway Patrol will be conducting driver license safety checkpoints Friday in Giles County on Highway 11 at the 11.5 mile marker.

Recognizing the danger presented to the public by unqualified drivers, troopers will concentrate their efforts on vehicles operated by drivers who violate the driver license laws of Tennessee.

The THP has found these roadside checkpoints to be an effective means of enforcing the license laws in the state, and ensuring the protection of all motorists. These checkpoints are set to start at 12:00noon and last until 1:00.
