Ohio DUI Checkpoint Map
Announced checkpoints, public-source references, and practical guidance on what a checkpoint stop can involve.
About Ohio DUI Checkpoint Data
This map shows only publicly announced OVI checkpoints in Ohio from verified sources. Data is compiled from official law enforcement announcements, news outlets, and verified public sources, with non-Ohio checkpoint articles filtered out. Not all checkpoints are announced in advance, and this map does not predict or speculate about unannounced locations.
Important: This information is for educational purposes only. DUI checkpoints in Ohio are legal when properly conducted with advance notice, neutral selection methods, and clear markings. Always drive sober and follow traffic laws.
Featured surface
Live checkpoint map and recent history
This is the main working surface on the page. If no public checkpoint notice is live right now, the map automatically falls back to recent history so you can still see where activity was recently announced.
Solid circles mark checkpoint locations that were reported with enough detail to place a street-level pin.
Outlined diamonds mark public notices that did not publish a street address, so the map centers them on the named city or county instead of guessing an exact stop location.
31 markers are approximate in the current view.
There are no currently announced checkpoints in the live feed right now, so this page is showing the last 90 days of public checkpoint history instead.
Public checkpoint notices tend to cluster around a few repeat holiday windows. If there is nothing live today, these are still the dates most worth watching.

Only recent public references are shown here. Older archive examples were removed so this section stays tied to current enforcement windows instead of stale one-off clips.
Checkpoint cases usually turn on one of a few issues first: the stop itself, what you did at roadside, your license situation, or what happens next in court.
