Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. I should not be subject to a search without probable cause. Simply driving on a public road is not probable cause.

Ditto for traffic, why is it still necessary for police officers to waste their time checking peoples' speed or if they ran a red light, or if a tag is stolen? All of that can be done with red light cams, speed cams, or ALPR.
What's nice is nobody can do things anonymously anymore just because an officer didn't see it. You get those bozos with GPS and two camcorders mounted on their cars playing "Citizen's Arrest," so why shouldn't cops get the toys as well?
