TSA Valet Car Searches at Rochester Airport

The TSA has begun ordering valet attendants at Rochester Airport to search the trunks and engines of private vehicles. Officials justify the searches by claiming valet cars parked near the terminal pose a greater explosive risk than those in long-term lots.

Adam Curry describes his "valet service" game at airport security, where he uses coach-class Southwest tickets to enter priority lines and treats TSA agents like personal assistants during his mandatory "opt-out" pat-downs.

Curry encourages listeners to use these tactics to feel "empowered" against the "sheep-like" behavior of other travelers.
