Thought it might be helpful to clarify a little more, not that it will probably change anyone's stance on the issue.

They did not seem to be running anyone's license - it was basically have DL and proof of insurance - you're on your way. For those that were pulled off on the side of the road....I'm guessing that they didn't have one or the other.

They did check insurance as well.

Apparently they used to be legal, then were not legal, and are now back to being legal.

I had my first "official" encounter today with the local police at a driver license check point. Signs at the start of the check point stated that you should have your license ready for the officer, so when I reached him I handed him DL and CHL. After greeting me, glancing at DL and CHL he said "Before today, I didn't realize how many CHLs there are around here. Have a good one!"

According to the numbers my city has about two times the percentage of CHLs when compared to the statewide numbers, but it's still surprising to me that he would have seen that many today. Anyway, a good encounter that I thought that I'd pass along.
