I love it. Take that NTSA you fuck faces!!

Virginia State Prohibits Motorcycle-Only Checkpoints. Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell signed into law H.B. 187, which was introduced by Delegate C. Todd Gilbert (R-Shenandoah). The new law, which takes effect July 1, prohibits law enforcement agencies from establishing checkpoints where the only vehicles subject to inspection are motorcycles. The measure was introduced after the Arlington County Police Department set up a motorcycle-only checkpoint during the Rolling Thunder ride on May 28, 2011, that brings awareness to prisoner of war/missing in action (POW/MIA) issues. The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) opposes motorcycle-only checkpoints and has been tracking the discriminatory practice since it first appeared in New York several years ago.

I believe Cesare Beccaria would refer to this as a 'false idea of utility'.

Strange move for Virginia, which has always been notorious for overzealous traffic enforcement...
