What’s a little extra 5 or 10 mph on the clock?

    Let’s it happen? I regularly see the police where I live do the kinds of things they pull people over for; speeding, rolling stops, distracted driving, failure to signal etc.

    Tough to maintain credibility when those charged with enforcement don’t follow the rules either.

      That’s true where I live too, but the asshole drivers not in cop cars far outnumber the entire police force of my town. Every day I see someone run a red light, change lanes in front of someone without signaling, or do 35 in a 25 school zone. And they think that’s okay not because they saw a cop do it too, but because they see all the people around them getting away with it. The cops either don’t care or are too busy blowing their budget on nice gear to hire enough people to do the job.
