Cedar Bay Road and Burdick street intersection
Fayetteville, New York
Non rainy weekends from 12am-3am bored cops check people headed from Fayetteville Manlius area to Minoa or East Syracuse Fremont area. Pulled over asked where your coming from, where you headed, did you drink and how much? They want to search cars and do sobriety tests on sober people.. Don't go home on by Towne Center, Target and the gas station. Go Route 290 or another way of possible. The cops are pleasant. it's just a waste of time to walk a line and do a gaze test especially when you haven't been drinking.

Broadway & Cedar St
Manhattan, New York
This checkpoint is always active. For years, the NYPD vehicle checkpoint in front of 120 Broadway The NYPD did not immediately comment on the checkpoint and the barriers. The NYPD uses the block-long checkpoint, between Pine and Cedar streets, to screen vehicles as they enter the Wall Street area. The NYPD refuses to comment further on this checkpoint.
Though the NYPD does search every commercial vehicle, copy their license plate and driver license info (most likely with Time/Date information to be entered into a database)

Route 9
Schroon Lake, New York
Border Patrol and NYS Troopers, the Border Patrol agent ran the entire operation.
Asking all sorts of questions (where were you? when did you go there? what for?) then they wanted to search the vehicle without warrant or suspicion. Very disturbing that our constitutional rights are slowly being diminished much as it was done in communist states and fascist states. Many good men and women have shed blood to defend our rights and now the present politicians want to forget that and take them away.

Route 9W just past Chamberlain St.
Glenmont, New York
The roadblock is set up with 2 or 3 Bethlehem town police cars, typically at rush hour in the morning. Officers stand in the median and require cars to slow down so that inspection and registration can be scrutinized. Usually only cars heading south (away from Albany) are stopped, cars heading north are not looked at.
The roadblock is just after the 32/Delmar bypass bridge, so that you have no opportunity to avoid it if heading south. Best bet to avoid this annoyance is to take a left onto Corning Hill Road, continue south on River Road and take a right onto Glenmont road, getting back on 9W a bit past the roadblock.

Larkin Rd
Harriman, New York
In our low crime area. They are only here to make money. Most people are stopped for very minor violation such as tinted windows, burnt out tail light. But they will also scrutinize your vehicle for anything!

Forest Road Corner of Acres Road
Kiryas Joel, New York
They are unfairly targeting our minority community. They do it on saturday night. We have virtually no crimes like DUI or drugs, and almost nobody has gone to prison for criminal convictions. All they are looking for is minor violations. They stop families with a lot of small children with absolutely no regard as to the time of day or major inconvenience caused.

Route 13 before State Park headed north
Verona, New York
When questioned why they needed to know where I was going, they had me pulled over. The officer was irritated at the fact that I would only crack my window enough to talk out of and not enough for him to reach into my car. He saw that I had a 6-pack in the car and questioned whether or not I was of legal age to obtain it. He used this as justification for seeing my license. He said I was being difficult. He made me provide my license and registration and asked if I had any warrants out for my arrest. He ran my license to check to see if I did have any warrants.
