Officers from Middletown Township and Penndel Borough will be taking part in the county’s annual St. Patrick’s Day DUI checkpoint.
The checkpoint will take place on Route 611 in Warrington from 10 p.m. Saturday until 3 a.m. Sunday. Drivers passing through the checkpoint may be subject to field sobriety tests if they appear under the influence.

Eight departments, including the two Levittown-area ones, and 18 officers will be manning the checkpoint. The Bensalem Township, Lower Southampton Township, New Britain Borough, and Warrington Township police departments will be taking part in addition to Middletown and Penndel.
“As we are all becoming keenly aware in this current climate, public safety must take many forms,” said Bucks County District Attorney Matt Weintraub. “Help us keep you safe. Please don’t drink or do drugs and drive.” The drunk driving indictments should be spoken about to a good attorney and get the necessary help.
The Bucks County DUI Task Force has hosted numerous checkpoints and enhanced patrol efforts across the county over the past several year.
