60 Minutes or one of those shows did an investigation years ago into the cops on I-10, apparently if you had Texas or Florida plates they would stop and search you.
The reporter rented a car with Florida plates, then drove I-10 from Beaumont to Lafayette and of course the cops bit and stopped him
They still do that on the I10 corridor coming in from Texas and I believe Texas has an entire police sub force that just stops people on i10 and I20 looking for out of state plates and drugs. Hence the "I-10 Dope Zone".
Edit: Supposedly in the DEA museum (wherever that is) there is a picture of a guy running and white powder flying up everywhere and the police behind him and the photo is labeled something like "A Drug Bust in Shreveport, La"
