Stopped in motor home for going too slow on I-80
This just goes to show how things can escalate to a huge problem when you are just driving along minding your own business. Kinda hard to believe this goes on. Motor home stopped for going too slow

Right from the beginning I thought the seizure of the man's funds was wrong and so does Judge Hicks. How the officer's did it was faulted by the judge.
The fact that others have sued the state because of other stops along I80 indicates that the Nevada police have a problem with following the law. I never said anything about the curtain blocking his view. I mentioned ONLY the curtain over the back window. Please read a little slower.
Based on the officer's testimony how is one to feel comfortable traveling I80, in a motor home, during the Winter, with any amount of cash in your coach? What is to protect any of us from the next seizure, especially if we do not consent to an inspection of our coach, as recommended by most LEO's on this forum?
Face it, if we are stopped at the side of the road, we have very little rights and we are left to the officer's discretion as to what he wants to do unless we act like submissive children. Any resistance to their requests, whether we have that legal right or not, seems to be just an excuse for them to escalate the encounter.
You are right about this being this judge's opinion but as the document shows, each one of his "opinions" were supported by previous court rulings as detailed after eah statement.
