Regardless of your political affiliations and whether or not you believe that these interior checkpoints actually help stop drug trafficking or human smuggling, I think we can all agree it is a huge inconvenience to have to stop in the middle of your trip on an interstate highway. Especially during holiday weekends with heavy traffic. However, I’ve never experienced any rude or unprofessional officers at this particular checkpoint. They usually seem to keep things running pretty smooth and efficiently. I’ve never been searched, though, so in truth my interaction with them has been pretty limited.
