Sheriff Buford T. Justice

A friend reports at least two dozen police vehicles, lights flashing, parked perpendicular to traffic on a major limited access road — apparently a sobriety check being set up on a freeway. At the moment this is written the police are simply standing around.

Traffic is backed up over a mile already and they haven’t done more so far than close a lane.

Readers of this blog know how I feel about drunken driving. But this kind of keystone cops activity is to drunken driving prevention as airport security is to fighting terrorism.
