Frequently Asked Questions
Please visit the Laws, Rights, or Homepage for more information on DUI Checkpoints.

This area is specifically to answer questions about our service, but our website
does provide valuable information about DUI Checkpoints, and DUI charges.

What exactly does this service provide?
    DUIBlock.com will notify you of Local Sobriety Checkpoint Alerts
and Locations (DUI Checkpoints/Roadblocks) to your Email Account
and on your cell phone via Text Messages. 

How much does the service cost?
Subscriptions start as low as $2.99 a month,
which is a whole lot less than a DUI!

DUIBlock.com offers several different Service Plans,
so one is right for you!

This is the bargain of a lifetime when compared to the alternative:
You can expect to spend somewhere around $10,000 for a DUI!
The challenge of hitching a ride to and from work every day for a year. The lifetime of shame that would be associated with a being part of a DUI fatality. Damaging your vehicle in a single-car accident, even if no one else is involved 

My Service Plan is about to expire. How do I extend it?
    Renewing your Service Plan is very easy... Just login using the form on the left of the site. You may choose any plan you wish and your Expiration Date will be extended that amount. If you choose a recurring payment then your service will run until you cancel your subscription and there is no need to renew.

How often will I receive Messages containing
DUI Checkpoint Alerts and Locations? 
    On average you should receive a message with Checkpoint Alerts (and Locations if known) approximately every few weeks. Sometimes you may receive more than one per week, and others not get a notification for two months. It all really depends on when the Police Departments are performing Sobriety Checkpoints in your area. Typically you can expect more checkpoints (and therefore more Text Messages) during the summer months than the winter, and more during major holidays. 

So are you saying to go ahead and drink and then try to avoid the checkpoints?
    Absolutely not. Drinking anything at all and driving (DUI) is dangerous for many reasons. It is always safest to have a designated driver or to take a cab. Please... Leave the roads for the sober people!

Police Departments recognize the value of this as well. It turns out that many DUI Checkpoints nab relatively few law breakers. Primarily, a DUI Checkpoint serves as a reminder to sober and drunk people that it’s dangerous to drink and drive. 

Our intent is to alert you of the dangers of drinking and driving in a timely manner so you can make the smart decision to leave your car out of the equation.

How do you collect all of this information on DUI Checkpoint Locations?
    The police departments are required by law to alert the public about DUI Checkpoint Locations – but they are not required to make it easy to find. In fact the information is very time consuming to collect. We generally must make calls and contact with every relevant city and county law enforcement agency in order to provide you with the service of DUI Checkpoint Alerts..

What does MADD think about all of this?
    Although we do not know how MADD feels about us personally, MADD believes prior notification of DUI Checkpoints is a positive thing. DUI Checkpoint Alerts, we feel, falls under this category. Their position is that when a person is notified of a checkpoint they think twice about getting in the car and driving. MADD knows that we cannot control a person’s decision but we can influence it with knowledge and education. Our system will make more people think twice before getting behind the wheel after drinking. For additional information on MADD go to www.madd.com
