I have not travelled the Channel crossing for some years but I have always been surprised how cursory the checks are - usually the shower and garage, but often miss the wardrobe, under the duvet, the overcab bed and under the sofa storage which is just long enough for a small person in the foetal position.
Maybe they have never found anyone in these areas so are under instructions not to bother, or their knowledge of MHs is insufficient.
Has anyone ever seen them inspecting under the MHs? I have not.
The only time we have properly been inspected, looking under the van with mirrors and every other onook and crannie) was when we were leaving the UK last September. It was days after that guy had escaped from Wandsworth prison(?) Under the delivery van and was on the run. They really went to town athat ime, every vehicle stopped and searched, dozens of police around.
