Confiscation and retention of property under this section shall be performed in accordance with MdTA Police procedures.
The law doesn't specify how the MPA Office of Security (or is it the MPA Office to Security) or the MdTA Police should determine what constitutes a breach of security. How is someone supposed to know without assuming that everything is a breach of security or getting advance permission for everything? Oh, that's the point, isn't it?
