I am really torn on this issue, but I sent the email anyway. But... why are we so special not to have to go through this? Cars go through check points... Big trucks have to stop and be inspected all the time. I am not getting the feeling that we are being singled out.

I've never seen a car ONLY check point. This is BIKE ONLY. Bike trucks are a little different.

But To be honest it is a waste of time here in NY. Long Island. Last year Newsday did a article about the Local combined Police forces doing MC only stops on the Major highway[s]
While many bitched and wrote letters, not a damn thing changed. Nothing. Untill We become as strong as the NRA. Not a god damn thing will change.

Forgive my ignorance, what is a Motorcycle-only checkpoint?

That is a Police road block/check point where "ONLY" those on a Bike will be pulled over with out proper cause. Meaning your on a Motorcycle, you get pulled over.

Done. Painless, thanks for the link. A good idea to speak up for your rights as a motorcyclist. We've always been a vocal minority.
