Okian Warrior writes "A Milford CT man was pulled over when a state police car radioactivity scanner flagged his car as being radioactive.
The man had been given a cardiac exam using radioactive dye, and had a note from his physician attesting to this, but this raises questions about the legality.
Given that it it not illegal to own or purchase or transport radioactive materials (within limits for hobbyist use), should the police be allowed to stop and search vehicles which show a slight level of radioactivity?"
