Forgot about the pull off style... see I have never had to deal with one... they are illegal in michigan. The pull off style I may not stop for... what they going to do, come after you? Then say what? You tell them "according to the US Supreme court, that checkpoints are illegal and unconstitutional". Then he fights you on it. Pricks!
Regular road block style... I will stop, cause I have to, but I will not co-operate like a sheep. I will not answer questions, you will not get any of my paperwork, you will not check my (50 state street legal) pipes, you will not ask me to operate my turns or brake lights, no you can not check my (DOT) helmet, and no you can not see my ID. They will have to give me a direct law that I'm breaking as to why they are detaining me. Then the law it is, better be a first offense (pull over-able violation). Then if I get off my bike, I will shut it off, and lock the steering.
If I was in a car for a checkpoint, I wouldn't even lower my window more than 2"-3". Also, if you are asked to get out with valid reason, shut off your car, get out, lock it, and put the keys in your pocket, then tell the cop you do not authorize a search of the car or for an officer to operate it.
Always Remember... the Nazi's had check points too!
