Yesterday morning there was a police road block on Irvington Ave coming into SO. I'd guess there was at least six PO pulling over cars and checking paperwork. I don't think it was a seatbelt check because they were pulling over almost every car. Anyone know what they were looking for? Thanks |

Kevin, it's National Click it or Ticket time & South Orange gets grant monies from the government to set up these roadside checkpoints, once established you can be stopped for any violation that is observed not just a seatbelt violation. Even though that is the primary function. |

Thanks - I'd never seen anything like it before in the US so I was curious. |
