An email titled "NC H381 Checking Station Pattern", just now received from Phil, says, "Sent to the governor. Prohibits LE from basing checkpoints on vehicle type. If signed into law no more MC only checkpoints in NC! woohoo!"
Comments from jan:
That's great! This is the kind of preventative measure other states could also use. It passed both chambers with unanimous approval.
Here's a link to the legislative verbage.

Putting a kabosh on roadblocks which single out motorcycles for subjugation and harassment would not have happened if BOLT didn't kickstart things by making such a humongous stink about the Holly Ridge motorcycle only roadblocks on the weekend of the Myrtle Beach Fall Rally in 2009, and then kept at it.

Now you know it can be done as preventative legislation, so do it in other states. Discrimination sucks, as does all other LE violations of your 4th and 14th protections. Don't let them get away with it!
