You do realize the following, don't you?
EZPass transponders and the Toll Plazas scan your License Plates & takes images of the Vehicle & Drivers.
This is whether you pay cash or use EZPass, your license plates, vehicle and driver's face are all imaged.
The GSP takes that one further by having periodic scanners and cameras along the route.
Both the New York State Thruway & GSP are private roadway entities, managed by their own authorities.

(9,016 posts)The cops are probably on the side of the TrumpDumbFucks.
If these had been Black people blocking traffic, there would probably be mass arrests and a few dead people as well.

These are managed roadways that are fee-based and impact paying users.
Ignoring this would set a precedent that they will not stand for, whether Trumpers or not.
They constantly fight for legitimacy and hire politically connected people from both parties.

State patrol isn't commenting.
Wicked Blue
(9,016 posts)after I emailed the newsroom about what was going on. I am just so PISSED about these jackasses blocking major highways.
When people tried to block traffic in DC on May Day 1970 to protest the Vietnam war, there were mass arrests. Now that the fascists are doing it, the cops do nothing.

Can't we just cut to the end and go ahead and throw their asses in their feared 'FEMA Camps or REX-something camps?'
