They will be pulling folks over and if they all have on their seatbelts will be given a dollar bill. I guess that is what they think your rights are worth in Maryland. Don't need DUI roadblocks anymore. Now they will just pull over whoever they want and if you havn't broken the law in their eyes you will be allowed to go. We are all criminals to these folks.

BOWIE, Md. (AP) — Some police officers in Maryland will be out Thursday giving cash to drivers wearing their seatbelts. But beware: they may give you a ticket if you don’t.
Prince George’s County police will be at Route 301 and Ballpark Drive in Bowie starting at noon watching passing vehicles. Officers and safety advocates will distribute $1 bills to drivers who have all occupants properly buckled. Those riding without seatbelts will get educational materials and face being fined.

WTF?! What a waste of time and money. If the Bowie police need something real to do, we'd welcome them here in Baltimore.
