How to get around Police Barriers in Schedule 1?

Trying to smuggle your stash through Schedule 1 and keep hitting police barriers? We’ve all been there. If you’re carrying anything “questionable,” one scan at a barrier could ruin everything. But you can easily dodge those barriers like a pro with a bit of street smarts and the right moves. Here's how.
Know Your Enemy: The Police BarriersIn Schedule 1, police checkpoints are more than just a minor inconvenience—they’re active, thorough, and run from 12 PM to 5 AM, the peak hours of hustle. They scan your inventory, your trunk, and everything in between. One wrong move, and you're slapped with a fine or worse—your goods confiscated.

But don’t sweat it. There are smarter ways to navigate around them.
How to Avoid Police Barriers On Foot?When you’re moving around on foot, the easiest rule to remember is: avoid the direct route.

Use sidewalks or alleys: These usually aren’t monitored and let you slip past barriers undetected.

Travel light: The less you’re carrying, the less you risk losing. Only take what you absolutely need.

No Product? No Problem: If you’re clean, you can safely pass through the barrier. But if you’re carrying anything risky, don’t take that chance.

How to Avoid Police Barriers While Driving?Driving makes things trickier. Police are way more suspicious of vehicles, especially during the barrier hours.

Here’s what you do:

Never drive directly through a barrier with cargo. You will get caught.

Park at a safe distance from the checkpoint.

Transfer goods from the car to your personal inventory, then walk around the barrier using side streets or pedestrian paths.

Once past the barrier, stash your items in a safe spot—your apartment, docks, or any reliable hideout.

Yes, this might take multiple trips. But it’s better than losing your entire haul in one go.


Pro Tips for Repeat RoutesSome barriers show up frequently—especially near Taco Ticklers and Docks Warehouse. Since you’ll pass through these zones often, get familiar with the local layout:

• Learn the alleyways and alternate paths like the back of your hand.
• Pre-plan your routes based on time and risk.
• Keep one emergency hiding slot in your inventory in case you’re stopped—sometimes, stashing just one high-value item can make all the difference.

Final WordIn Schedule 1, police barriers aren’t unbeatable—they’re just puzzles with simple solutions. Stick to low-profile routes, move smart, and never get too comfortable. The streets are watching, but with the right moves, you’ll always stay one step ahead.
