MOBILE, Alabama -- Police will be checking to ensure drivers are using safety features and carrying the proper paperwork on Thursday, March 28, and Friday, March 29, marking the fourth such checkpoint announcement of the month.

The stops are planned less than one week after officials held their last group of checkpoints on March 23.

Mobile police do not release or confirm information about where checkpoints are or were, as safety checkpoints are considered an "ongoing operation."

According to Ashley Rains, public information officer with the Mobile Police Department, officers will check seatbelts, child restraints and "other safety features," to ensure drivers are being safe on the roads.

Authorities will also check for drivers' registration, proof of insurance and driver's licenses.

On March 21, Rains said the checkpoints are designed to cut down on car crashes and erratic driving.

"Around people's neighborhoods, they call us when they see people driving too fast and blowing through stop signs," Rains said. "We're listening to concerned citizens."

Officials focus their checkpoints on areas where police get a high number of citizen complaints.
