We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Speedgazebo <nickaird@xxxxxxxxx>
saying something like:
Several people I know also got stopped and were directed by a plod to
the side of the road and actually asked questions by a jobsworth in a
yellow jacket, do these jobbos have a right to this information or do
the rely on the officiuous way these things are conducted to get it?

I see the cunts in favour of it seem to think it's 'only a few minutes'
- the tossers; it takes considerably longer than that by the time you've
waited in the queue.
I was fed up with being pulled in for those idiotically-organised
censuses and just refused to co-operate in the end.
A simpler way would be to use some commonsense and only pull in a
vehicle when there's no queue - that way, they'd get a sample and very
few people would be inconvenienced. In fact, if it was done sensibly I
wouldn't have minded being one of those pulled in.
