“Instead of searching for actual criminals, Kentucky State Police will be on the lookout for people who eat while they drive as part of Operation RAID, which will include checkpoints targeting ‘distracted drivers,’ despite the fact that eating while driving is not banned in Kentucky. Reports concerning the program also made no mention whatsoever of the fact that such checkpoints are clearly a violation of the 4th Amendment. ‘Roving patrols and an increase in safety checkpoints’ will characterize a ‘blanket campaign’ that ‘may not work well in certain areas,’ acknowledged Captain Nathan Kent, KSP Post One Commander.”
