They put up the yellow reflector cones to form one line to the right into a rest stop where they ask you questions and if they suspect you, they wave you over for further interrogation and searches. This meant cars, trucks and bikes. |

I was driving along a main road and had cones and flaggers directing people to a side parking lot and the sign said vehicle inspection ahead. I saw multiple DHS cars and trucks along with state troopers but pulled off before they could pull me in. This has been running once a month now near the beginnings of each month.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 33777566 Panama 02/05/2013 10:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Q: What's a "driver license checkpoint”? A: Troopers will request the driver license and vehicle registration from each driver detained. If a driver is also the owner or registrant of the vehicle, the Trooper also may request proof of personal injury protection (PIP) insurance. FHP says violations will be enforced pursuant to Florida law and Division policy. They are detaining you without probable cause. You dumb fuck Americans better not comply or else they will eventually put a chain around your neck and call you toby. I left the USA for good because I saw this shit coming many years ago. USA was once a powerhouse great nation full of good wholesome people, hard working, salt of the earth, now a complete cluster fuck bunch of weirded out loonies that would make Jerry Springer proud. The fall of an empire happening right before our eyes. |

Because the inspection is required annually, we don't have to put up with this crap. Basically this is to make all you folks in Florida say "Oh, thank God!" when they implement the Florida Annual Vehicle Inspection for $24 dollars per year, per vehicle. Tax you and make you fucking like it. |

He felt proud wearing his new DHS uniform and his mother loved the extra food rations he brought home from the camp almost as much as she loved the two lightening bolts on her son's collar. "Inspect Away." What a fucking maroon, doc. |

They don't really stop people. Just stand around in the road all night scaring the drunks. I'm not for cops doing this shit at all but in the keys it is obviously necessary. Some drunk almost hit my wife and kids head on the other morning. Luckily she reacted quickly. Had I been there I would have followed the dude and beat the fuck out of him. |

They normally just kind of look at inspection sticker and registration on plate. They sometimes ask for license. Is this legal? I thought they normally need to publish DUI checkpoints in advance isn't this basically the same? |
