You did not understand. Local AZ law enforcement is limited to checking immigration status of suspects. They are NOT allowed to act on that information. They are NOT allowed to arrest anyone for being in the country illegally.

So let's say for argument's sake (although this will never happen).... You are driving a carload of illegal immigrants who are in AZ to pick strawberries. You are caught speeding. You get a ticket. The end.

Nothing more can happen as your passengers are not required to carry papers (you forgot about THAT important piece of the decision) nor do they have to answer the police per the 5th Amendment. Even if they answer the police and provide names or ID if requested, they cannot arrest them. or do anything, as they have not broken any AZ laws.
