So, am I understanding that right, that they're upholding the chalking-tires technique, but saying it holds up for reasons other than the vehicle and caretaking exceptions?

Also:

>>Because we chalk this practice up to a regulatory exercise

It should not be legal for judges to make puns like that.

(Edited to add substantive remark that belonged here as well.)

It was a very technical decision that clarified the parameters of the debate and sent it back to be re-judged. They didn't uphold/knockdown anything. They did say that chalking a tire is a "search" (using bad logic, IMO), but did not rule that it was "unreasonable".
