So it is probably a good thing that we are left wondering what the intent was OR alot more people would be looking at the prospect of getting a civil penalty for interfering with the screening process.
Traffic violations are clearly spelled out so everyone knows what must happen for a violation to occur.
What is the exact language for TSA Interferring with Screening violations. If I'm subject to a fine it is only right that I know how to avoid the issue.
