There’s a sign on the interstate that says “Agricultural Inspection”, and then there however many miles ahead it is. After that, there’s a list of vehicles types that must stop. Now, let’s apply a similar situation to member states that have provincial checkpoints. Do vehicles have to stop? Member nations could in fact make those signs law enforcement officers.
OOC: Aside from making roadside signs law enforcement officers being the kind of "creativity" that even I think it would be a bad faith reading of the text, are the stop points fully automated? No person there making sure lorries stop for no reason? Or are there personnel doing checks on the vehicles, with possibly police standing by in case someone who should stop, doesn't? If there's personnel there, or even law enforcement, you're really making a problem out of a situation that's not a problem with the proposal.
However, such stops and presumably searches of cargo might contradict the previous resolution. Or resolutions, I can't remember if the cargo markings were separate from the vehicle safety things. Or if the cargo markings thing actually failed to become a resolution... But still, basically dealing with the cargo belongs under a separate resolution and law enforcement officers can still mandate vehicles to stop for whatever reason.
