Reality, the feds can do what they want as far enforcing federal crimes. 
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

Here's the catch though.
You MIGHT have broken one ounce into 1/4 for sale, but by the same token you might have gotten samples from 4 different sources and wanted to keep them separate, Feds will charge you with dealing anyway.

Maybe after the crime has been committed and reported to them...but I don't know that they would be allowed to set up road blocks to search local citizens..or stop them on the street.

Feds don't run drunk driving check points...and I doubt it would be looked upon favorable by local enforcement agencies if they started.

Drunk driving is not a federal crime, so they could not set up a dui check point.  That does not mean they could not pull you over and arest you if they beleave you are dui.

TSA Has set up check points on roads though.
