I agree with you "to a point" as I like to say. I have no problem with DOT inspecting the fleet of a company, BUT, ONLY if it had pulled over a truck for a violation of some sort. Speeding, light(s) not working, uncovered load, no inspection sticker, etc,etc,etc... I don't agree with DOT hiding behind the word "safety" to be able to pull over ANY truck for ANY reason at ANY time. That's tyranny, not freedom, and could very well possibly lead to the same thing with cars down the road... (don't put anything past them), I feel the same way about dui checkpoints, totally unconstitutional imho.
