It appears that they are testing this out at truck weigh stations where all commercial drivers have to stop anyway. Adding these random searches to that routine.
I do not have a problem with them asking folks to be aware and to report actviity...but I believe most American already do that.
I do have a problem with these warrantless, random searches.
If and when they start setting up road blocks along the highways and stop everyone doing the same, is when they will have problems with John Q public.
That will be coming. Any of us with conservative congressmen (and that’s a mority of us) or Senators (hopefully to be a majority soon) must contact them in the strongest terms and complain about this infringement of our rights and violation of the constitution.
No probable cause, warrantless, infringement on our right to travel simply because we are traveling. That leads to abject tyranny...of course, for the “good” of us all.

Welcome to the USSA, comrade.
It appears that they are testing this out at truck weigh stations where all commercial drivers have to stop anyway. Adding these random searches to that routine.
Not all trucks are stopped at the weigh stations now. They have weigh-in-motion sensors in the roadway now with in-cab transponders for the drivers. Electronic signs on the road that say... TRUCK MUST EXIT TO WEIGH STATION or TRUCK OK TO BYPASS.
These check points I’m seeing are at different locations separate from the weigh stations.
I shall be on the lookout for these bass turds ....... Thanks for the Head’s Up !!.....:o)
Stay safe Jeff !
