And yeah with those check points they have checked for cats on my car so just a warning.

pine beach ( a local boro to me ) does this incessantly on route 9 - the only way in/out of my town, unless you go back roads to the parkway. i'm usually not thinking and i drive right up on one of their 'inspection sticker' checks. i have rolled the window down, slowed to a crawl and let the cop know what i think of him being there. i've even told them they'd make out better if they targeted drunk drivers. A) more revenue, and B) safer streets.
i've begged local cops to set up shop right outside of my house. the money they would make from the people doing 40 in a 25mph zone would LOWER my taxes. i told them coffee and donuts are on me...
just make sure you are clean. good inspection sticker, clean reg and insurance and a good DL. and try to slow down in the lower speed limit zones. the two seconds you save by rushing to get there now may come back to bite you in the ass sometime later. god forbid you ever hit a kid on a bike...
