Or, perhaps, a private company working a (likely paid) partnership at a roadblock that was already planned.

edit to add: Here's more detail, reads as though this was a one-off deal specifically for this purpose. It wasn't anything new however, the relationship dates all the way back to 2007. And the private company is working with the NHTSA, so this isn't exactly like Joe's BBQ Hut taking breath samples to check for the presence of pork or beef.
