The opinion

*66 BROSKY and ROBERTS, JJ.,

concurring:

In Commonwealth v. Tarbert, 348 Pa.Super. 306 , 502 A.2d 221 (1986) (allocatur granted), this Court held that random roadblocks violate Article I, § 8 of the Pennsylvania Constitution. In our view, Tarbert clearly controls this case. Therefore, we concur only in the result.
