BERDON, J., dissenting.

I would grant certification on the following issues:

"2. In the alternative, if a police roadblock sobriety checkpoint is determined to be a valid procedure in Connecticut, were the defendant's federal and state constitutional rights violated by the failure of police to follow specific guidelines and/or procedures?"Robert J.
