Rockwall, Texas, east of Dallas, has I-30 running through it. I-30 is one of the main "pipe lines" for drugs from California and Mexico to the east. A few years back I think it was the county sheriff, Texas highway patrol and the city police together had an idea to set unmarked cars out and start profiling drivers passing through. It was like shooting ducks in a barrel. Some of the largest drug busts in Texas, if not the nation. They even caught some pro football players. Confiscating most of the vehicles. Soon there after the city police were driving some if the nicest squad cars and trucks painted in their new black and white theme.

They had to quit for some reason. Violation of civil rights from profiling if I remember.
