Highway Drug Bust

Two men were pulled over by Ohio State Highway Patrol for speeding and, with the help of a drug-sniffing dog, four suitcases of marijuana were found. Henry Soltau, 29, of Cleveland, and Olen Maxwell, 71, of Los Angeles, are in jail on $1 million bond each.

Since this type of bust happens regularly, is it really news anymore? And, are statistics being totaled on how many major drug operations were stopped because the genius drug runners don't follow motor vehicle laws?

To answer the first question, yes, it's news. But, so is the weather. As for the second question, I doubt it and statistics probably shouldn't be compiled. If drug traffickers ever learned how to drive without breaking the law, there would be an even greater drug problem.
