Honolulu To Humiliate DUI Drivers

In this Nov. 2008 picture, police perform a sobriety roadblock checkpoint on a Friday night in downtown Honolulu. Mug shots of drunken driving suspects are landing on the Honolulu Police Department Web site, creating a virtual wall of shame long before suspects get their day in court. Supporters say the experiment in public humiliation to be launched Wednesday, Nov. 25, 2009 should be used elsewhere in the nation if it reduces the number of drunks on the road.
