LEE COUNTY, Fla. — A new reason to make sure you don't even *try* to drive after a drink.

Police in Lee County is going after drivers who've had too much to drink starting tomorrow by setting up a "sobriety checkpoint."

They also say they will hit the road to be on the lookout for drunk drivers in what they call a "saturation operation."

Police are not saying where the checkpoint will be or where the patrols are planned. Of course, if you suspect a driver is impaired, you can dial * FHP.
