New to us old to them. Among the top five techniques used by the TSA, only one will be used from now on in terms of public pat downs.
According to the TSA, travelers who now refuse to go through body scanners will apparently face pretty invasive pat downs by agents in the nearest private room. So invasive, that agents are now reportedly allowed to use the front of their hands.
Officials have since notified police and airport police of such a change in frisks, potentially, to avoid some pretty bizarre police reports.
