I am staying home, I live by the Bal theatre , with a broken right heel I am going to stay home . Just do not get drunk and drive home ,the cops are going to be out by that place again and bust some more drunks like they did last week .
Honestly, I wouldn't alert anyone of where any police will be checking for drunk drivers. If you are going to do it, you should be caught in the act. No exceptions. Informing anyone of when and where they are going to be only aids in them being able to still drive but have a chance to avoid getting caught.
I would argue that drunk driving, at the very least, is a result of thoughtlessness at that given point in time, and so even if someone were a reader, and saw such an alert, I can't imagine them thinking: oh, I'd better use this alternate route.
