-A A +A

The Tennessee Highway Patrol will be conducting two December driver license roadside safety checkpoints in Roane County.

The first checkpoint will be from 9 to 10 a.m. Dec. 7 on Hwy. 27 at the Morgan County line.

Another is planned from 10 to 11 a.m. Dec. 14 on Pine Ridge Road at the railroad tracks.

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

THP officials said they have found these driver license roadside safety checkpoints to be an effective means of enforcing driver license laws of Tennessee while ensuring the protection of all motorists.
