The only way law enforcement has a chance to prevent this is to pull people over for traffic violations.

If we didn't issue traffic citations you couldn't drive on the road without being in fear for you life, because of the way people would drive. You guys see all the time, people driving with their heads up their brown eye.

Of course, now you guys are gonna start in on the well, I see you "cops" doing all the time. Like I said in my post earlier, untill you've been there you wont understand. I will still go above the speed limit, if I think that the extra minutes I save will make a difference to someone's life or safety.



That is horse shit, document it and complain!!! Fight it untill something gets done. That is the crap that makes us all look bad.

I did and went to the Chief of Police to handle this type of stuff. It stopped after that.

Like I said, I have the ultimate respect for our Law Enforcement Officers. Its the bad apples that get under my skin.
