“How many rows have you got in here? Four seats? Four rows of seats?” a state trooper can be heard saying. “Did y’all put an extra one in? Huh? Did y’all put another one in? They come like this, I’ve never seen one with that many seats in it.”

“He’s hauling these people for money,” one state trooper said.
