ABSTRACT:
A vehicle cargo inspection station includes a building structure that has open first and second ends and a top portion forming a passageway therein. A mechanism automatically scans the cargo area of the existing vehicle. The scanning mechanism is movable within the passageway while the existing vehicle remains stationary such that cargo within the existing vehicle remains statically housed therein. The building structure is manufactured of durable and rigid material such that the structure provides a barrier between the scanning mechanism and the outside environment thereby protecting the scanning mechanism from damage by harsh environmental conditions.
