    I'm sitting at a Calif. Truck stop and I'm witnessing DOT, CHP, and Undercover in an unmarked vehicle. Blatantly harrass random drivers. This is private property and I'm literally floored by such actions. Their checking for idleing, registrations, I even saw an officer get a measure tape out to measure a trailers back axle distance from back of trailer. What is this?? Have they nothing better to do? Or is it about greed and revenue from the citations. I get the fact that we are to endure inspections while out on the road. Weigh stations, ect. But when is it enough. This is harrassment and Gestapo tactics. How are we suppose to do our jobs fearing that ,I'm next on the list. Why dont they just round everyone up inspect us and let that be enough.. this continuous threat cutting harrassment is so far left. I'm disgusted. Why are they not drug tested, and subject to random harrassment. See what we go through. This is so wrong on all levels. I understand the importance of being compliant with all DOT rules and laws. But Really!!!

    ##### Them..... Ignore them- Your on private property OFF DUTY. Go get a blonde and Bang her till her head pops off while the C H I T head cop stands outside playing with himself.

    Dont you dare hand over a license or credentials- If they ask you your name- Fine...But it ends there.

    Now I know Some of you are thinking.."Why? Just go with it,".... Not on those terms you dont.

    Go to the Cops house while he's at work and bang his Wife then- Fair Play right? He'll Come home and his own head will pop off cause she's too tired to even cook dinner.
