Should I wonder what a US shadow government has been transporting over that highway that they don't want discovered by local police?


Only if your tinfoil hat has holes in it.

Local traffic enforcement on the Interstate system is a hazard to traffic. I doubt any local funds are used for building or maintaining I-40 so why should your small town cops have any jurisdiction on it?

Bleckley Co is the next county up from Dodge Co (my haunt). Bleckley has 1.6 miles of I-16 within its borders. Bleckley Co sheriff's deputies spend a good bit of time on that little strip snatching speeding fine revenue out of the jaws of the GSP.

I gathered from the article that the feds are okay with the Sheriff's dept patrolling I-40 but the small town donut-dunkers should stay the hell off.

Next thing you know some hick town with an empty treasury will put up a toll booth.

Ya gots to step in early to head off this bullshit where small towns look at the freeway as a revenue source.

Up the road on I-75, we have Forsyth in Forsyth Co. About 1.5 miles runs through the Forsyth city boundaries. It's common to see cops, deputies, and GSP all gathered in the median there. Since I never see them engaged in fisticuffs with each other, I guess they've worked out some kind of sharing plan.
