Here in the west, we have what are called DUI checkpoints they set up on highways and stop every car coming into town to see if you've been drinking or not, that's, in my opinion, also unconstitutional. I thought the police had to have reasonable suspicion or probable cause to stop you for a violation.
Unfortunately, the SC has ruled that these checkpoints are constitutional. We seem to be losing our freedoms more and more each year.
Really sad.
