I do believe it's a federal offense to open mail belonging to someone other than the person to whom it is addressed. It doesn't matter the reason. I find it hard to believe there were not other ways to check the COD amount of this package. That should have been something known before pulling in the driveway.

Like it was said earlier, what if it had been a personal item such as a sexual aid kit, an HIV test kit, an eviction notice, a garnishment, divorce papaers, any number of things that are totally personal. What if that driver had this happen to him? How would it feel to have his privacy invaded?

Give him credit for coming up with a good excuse to do something illegal but XXXXX out that credit for being so stupid as to invade your personal space.

Keep us posted on the outcome of this one. I'd be interested to know.
