ST. JOSEPH-- As you travel this Thanksgiving weekend, police will be having several checkpoints starting Friday night. St. Joseph officers will mainly be having DUI checkpoints. But they'll also be making sure you're buckled up. They say that if you get stopped at one of those checkpoints, simply have your license and registration ready.
