KSP Post 2 Traffic Safety Checkpoint Locations

NEWS RELEASE

Madisonville, KY – Throughout the month, the Kentucky State Police Post 2 Madisonville will conduct traffic safety checkpoints in the Post 2 District, which includes Crittenden, Hopkins and Webster Counties.

The KSP utilizes traffic safety checkpoints to promote safety for motorists and to provide a deterrent for those who violate laws contained in the Kentucky Revised Statutes.

The intent of a traffic safety checkpoint is to provide a highly visible, public safety service focusing on vehicular equipment deficiencies, confirming appropriate registration and insurance of vehicles, and the valid licensing of drivers.  Violations of law or other public safety issues that arise shall be addressed.

Drivers encountering a traffic safety checkpoint are requested to have their operator’s license, vehicle registration receipt, and proof of insurance readily accessible.  Drivers with this information in hand can reasonably expect to be delayed for no more than a few minutes, as long as there are no violations of law, and depending on roadway congestion.
