we've got checkpoints just like this in lower manhattan, midtown near times square and over here at the of the upper west side as well as further uptown. what's happening here is that the police officers are not only visually scanning vehicles, but they're also pulling aside trucks and vans. let's have a look over here. you can see an officer there has just pulled over a truck. he's asking the driver to open up. he'll talk a look inside. that's been happening on and on again. one truck driver just a little while ago told me that he had taken an hour and a half to travel three miles. t.j., that means the traffic backed up and you'll see it in a moment, the traffic is basically moving at about two miles an hour. now, in addition to the visual scans, the officers are also wearing radiation detectors. they're a little bit larger than my audio box here. they don't emit a beep, of course, because it's real noisy here. they've got them on vibrate. no probable almost with that so far. but the point is, they're searching for potential dirty bombs. the police say they are aggressively towing ille

manhattan. we're at the beginning of the upper west side. there are checkpoints downtown, midtown and above us. further up the west side. it's really a traffic nightmare here. what's going on is that the police officers are visually inspecting cars as they go by. one by one we're merging here four lanes of traffic into one. they also are pulling aside trucks and vans if they believe there might possibly be anything suspicious. they're also wearing detectors, larger than my audio box here that can tell them if there's any radiation coming from the vehicle. those detectors will vibrate f anything were to be found. also, the other measures that will be taking they're checking license plates. not just vijish ully, but the police have scanners. in some cases they're on police vehicles. they're all the time in new york, at bridges and tunnels scanning license plates in case there are any stolen plates, any other plates that are of note to the police. that's another alert they're taking. they're supposed to be aggressively towing vehicles. however, this vehicle that has been standing rig
