Raymond-
Don't get me wrong-I realize that law enforcement is necessary. I'm just saying that they are using drunk drivers as an excuse to throw up roadblocks for any given reason including random vehicle inspections. I really don't see that many junkers on the roads these days although I have read that 30-40% of La. drivers don't have insurance. That's why I have to carry uninsured motorist.
I guess I'm just getting a little weary of having to go through so many checkpoints. Around here they are happy to brag about how many tickets they have issued for expired license plate tags or tinted windows. I doubt that those expired stickers have killed very many people.
Sorry for venting. It seems like I have to spend way too much time to keep the government off my back- city, parish, state, & federal.
