According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, every day here in the United States, almost 30 people die in drunk-driving crashes.

The Massachusetts State Police(MSP) has announced a sobriety checkpoint for this coming Friday night, March 24 into Saturday, March 25.

In their efforts to remove those drivers who operate under the influence from our roads, the MSP has announced a sobriety checkpoint for this coming weekend.

It stands to reason. After all, playoff football weekends are typically common ground for numerous incidents concerning drunk and/or impaired driving.

If you're planning on having a few alcoholic beverages this weekend, perhaps while you're watching some playoff football, make sure you've secured a ride.

The state's Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission has kicked off its "Operation Safe Holidays" which will focus on preventing impaired driving in Massachusetts during the holiday stretch of Thanksgiving through New Year's Eve.
