There are white vertical rectangles, facing one another, when you cross the border by vehicle. Receiver and transmitter.  

They don't tell you it's an X-ray scanner but it is, because fuck you.  

They bombard you with X-rays, they know it's not healthy, but again, fuck you. That's how they find these kind of things.

Edit1: no idea why I'm getting downvoted, like at all. It is a statement of fact, and the "fuck you" is not personal to the reader, it's the sentiment from government to people crossing the border (legals illegals and citizens alike). 

Edit2: there's a troll down there arguing about TSA scans being more harmful. No one was discussing or comparing TSA scans versus vehicle inspection scans. At all. I made the mistake of feeding the troll, don't do that people. Just ignore him.

Not healthy ? What about natural radiation then? What about flying? One flight will get you like x5-x10 of radiation from scan

Lol, so much rage. Car radiation is around 1-2days of background radiation exposure.
