- gamblor956 13y agoSobriety checkpoints have actually been legal in Texas for about 3 years, see http://www.cca.courts.state.tx.us/OPINIONS/HTMLOPINIONINFO.ASP?OPINIONID=20505 http://www.cca.courts.state.tx.us/OPINIONS/HTMLOPINIONINFO.A.... The original distinction, in Texas, was between arresting someone for driving drunk and arresting them for another crime discovered during a sobriety checkpoint. The first was legal, the second was not. However, in Lujan, the Texas Criminal Court of Appeals ruled that the latter was acceptable.
