Now there's security in action.....:-)


How would you inspect every container entering the US?



When you say inspected, do you understand that they don't
actually open them up and check inside? Mostly they run an
x-ray machine around the container. A very slow process as
it's done now.
At least on the East Coast, they set a dozen or so
containers on the ground, in line, then drive the x-ray
machine over them, slowly. A costly , time consuming
process.
I don't know why they don't have a drive thru type machine.

Because it would be logical?
