Checkpoint Alerts
The NYMSTF asserts that the motorcycle -only "safety" checkpoints being carried out by New York's police are illegal, unconstitutional, have little bearing on our safety and actually endanger motorcycle riders as well as the police officers engaged in these checkpoints. Choosing to use a flexible, efficient mode of transportation is not probable cause or reasonable suspicion of anything but good intentions.
"If you see something, SAY something!"
If you discover a police checkpoint clearly pulling over only motorcyclists, send an SMS text message to our main phone number, 347-410-6783. Make the first word of your message checkpoint (spelling counts!), followed by a brief description (140 characters or less) of the checkpoint's location. Your text will be published to our Checkpoint RSS/XML feed and our Twitter account within 5 minutes.

People interested in knowing the latest locations of motorcycle checkpoints in the NYC/NY areas may subscribe to our Checkpoint RSS feed and/or better yet, follow us via Twitter.
