[quote=bearishgurl][quote=spdrun]That too. So we’d be increasing the police state for minimal benefit.[/quote]CA has an ICE checkpoint as well, usually situated just west of Winterhaven. However it was closed in recent weeks, likely due to intermittent road construction projects on I-8 for approx 100 miles. Not sure but it appears that the interstate may be in the process of widening east of the SD County mtns.[/quote]

I think it’s usually closed there. In fact, I’ve made that drive more than 20 times in the last 5 years. I’ve never see a checkpoint just west of Winterhaven. Tons of ICE agents hang out there near Gordon Wells. There’s been one on westbound 8, permanently, between El Cajon and the summit.

The highway project is between El Centro and Yuma.
