    These cameras and xray machine, with the surrounding cage are at both the entrance and exit of the rest area

    Anyone know what it is and why it is there?

    I doubt its an xray machine....more likely a radiation detector.

    They're worried that you're going to sell out to Al Qaeda, and will transport a bomb for them.

    I've often wondered what that is as well. The fact that there's one on the exit side as well would seem like some type of tracking system that scans you in and when you leave. It's only on the big truck entrance too.

    Thanks I think. I've never been accused of intelligence before. :)
