As I saw from watching from the beginning, this guy is on a road 100 miles from the border that is a known route for smugglers and illegal haulers, at a known permanent checkpoint. He sets up a camera for no other purpose than to record his meeting, then refuses to provide reasonable information. My first thought as a patrolman would be that he was trying to distract me or others from another vehicle, or to intimidate me by the camera into not inspecting him. All he would have had to do was say he was a US citizen and be on his way, but he wanted a confrontation either as his way for fame, or to lay the groundwork for loosening the inspections and allowing more drugs, etc. to get through. I also would suspect he no longer has a job driving, unless his employer (Swift) was in on it to make it easier for them to get things through.
I went back and watched the first part again and noticed that every now and then you would see a smile start to flicker across the drivers face and the corner of his lips and he would turn his face away from the camera as if watching other vehicles and traffic, even before he reached the first stop. IMHO he was intentionally setting all of this up just to get attention.
2nd edit, Remember all the rights everyone talks about are guaranteed to citizens of the U.S.A., and those traveling here legally. By refusing to identify himself as a US citizen and then refusing to show his ID or drivers license, he was proving he was trying to be prove he was a smart a$$ and effectively refusing those rights.,
