EXACTLY this.

Its not the police’s fault that on that day, on that road it _happens_ to be 10000 motorcycles to ever 100 cars passing through a check point. And it not like there is some contraption that grabs you by the subframe and lifts you and your bike out of the flow of vehicles through the check point and segregates your GSXR from a Prius.

The only thing it will do is not allow them to be stupid and put up a sign that says “motorcycle check point ahead” or something like that. hell they can still have 2 lanes, and some cop pointing cars to the left and bikes to the right… then just call it “being efficient” or some shit and beat around the bush to justify it.

Cool idea. but I put money on there is still a check point this year.
