Correct answer: B. Stop, enter, and search the vehicle without a warrant, and seize the device

Section 191.3(2) gives a police officer the power to stop, enter, and search the vehicle without a warrant, and to seize any such device or material found — a warrantless search power specifically tied to toll-evasion equipment, distinct from the general rules requiring a warrant to search a vehicle. Section 191.3(3) goes further: on conviction, any device seized this way is forfeited to the Crown.
