Jeff Gray, a long time activist in recording police, has recently released a video showing how he got through DUI checkpoints without saying a word.
His novel idea was to hang a plastic bag outside his rolled up window with the following:
1 – A message stating:
I remain silent
No searches
I want my lawyer
2 – Driver´s license
3 – Registration
4 – Insurance Information
How did police respond upon his pulling up to the checkpoints with this bag hanging outside his car?

If you have a CDL, this will not work.
Totally disagree. 4th Amendment covers it. But that’s why we live in the good old USA. We can agree to disagree.
I do the exact same thing at checkpoints except I roll my window down and talk to the officer. Because I understand he’s out there protecting the lives of strangers from drunk drivers.
Bob Estrada does this fly here in Texas? PM me if you want.
I doubt this would work in Texas .
Now that’s what am talking about
Frank says:
“You know what would happen if he would have just handed them his registration, DL and proof of insurance? Nothing. They are just doing their jobs and they would have said “Sir, have a great day”.”

You know what would happen if he would have just handed them his registration, DL and proof of insurance? Nothing. They are just doing their jobs and they would have said “Sir, have a great day”.
So what was different? Isn’t that what happened anyway?
I have gone thru few police check point without any problem. I have never gotten any DUI but I’m not so sure if this tactics would work in Colorado ?
