Ohio State Highway Patrol OVI checkpoint
on Trimble Road tonight
MANSFIELD – The Ohio State Highway Patrol in partnership with the Mansfield
Police Department announced that an OVI checkpoint will be held tonight from 8
p.m. to 10 p.m. on Trimble Road in City of Mansfield.
The OVI checkpoint, funded by federal grant funds, is planned to deter and
intercept impaired drivers.
The checkpoint will also be held in conjunction with nearby saturation patrols to
aggressively combat impaired driver-related injury and fatal crashes.
If you plan to consume alcohol, designate a sober driver or make other travel
arrangements before you drink. Don’t let another life be lost to the senseless and
selfish act of getting behind the wheel impaired.
The Ohio State Highway Patrol reminds you to call 911 or #677 if you suspect an
impaired driver.
