Cass County Sobriety Checkpoint Coming Friday

On Friday, September 5, the North Dakota Highway Patrol and Cass County Sheriff’s Office will conduct a sobriety checkpoint at a predetermined location in Cass County.  Saturation patrols will be conducted following the checkpoint.  The purpose of these enforcement events is to deter impaired driving and to remove impaired drivers from the road. As of August 28, 2025, there have been 57 fatalities on North Dakota roadways. Sixteen of the fatalities (28%) have been related to crashes involving alcohol. The North Dakota Highway Patrol is committed to the Vision Zero strategy which aims to establish a culture of personal responsibility and that every driver needs to consistently make the responsible choice to always drive sober or plan for a sober ride home.
