My understanding is that they need reasonable suspicion to stop someone like that.
The U.S. Supreme Court said that "random" stops to inspect vehicles is unconstitutional. Police can't randomly select cars to stop while letting other cars pass without inspecting them.
However, the court said that license checkpoints conducted in a systematic, predesignated manner are constitutional.
Delaware v. Prouse was the case.
