Probably not. But yeah, lets get rid of traffic stops so no one gets their stolen car or gun back, people with serious felony warrants aren't apprehended, and missing or sex-trafficked kids aren't found.
Since all the beer virus
it sounds like a bike race track out my way. They just settled down a bit ago. Some serious racing going on. Yeah that cool.

We've been stopping them but 20 cops vs. several hundred cars/bikes doesn't work out too well.
Oh I am sure but man they have been getting with it every night.
The UK uses MPH, not KPH.
Yeah, I should have made that purple anyhow.
I did get to drive on the autobahn in Germany where sometimes there are no speed limits at all. It is kind of fun to be going 120 mph and have somebody zip by like you are going slow.
I wouldn’t say all stops. But some of you guys are more selective about what you pull people over for. The stretch of highway near me still has a 55mph speed limit. Hell, the bypass around New Albany was just raised to 65, but then the speed limit goes down to 55 on I64 because that’s a “drug corridor”. They keep fighting calls to raise the speed limit because they get to use it as a speed trap for pretextual stops.
Well, no. Stop it. No more of that. There’s no reason the speed limit can’t be 65 through that stretch of I64. And pulling people over for some ticky tack bull**** so that you (rhetorically “you”) can gin up reasonable suspicion to search someones car is creating a potentially dangerous encounter that didn’t need to happen. Not saying every cop does that or every department does that.
Not really. Some traffic enforcement is fine. The level is has gotten too is ridiculous. Stealth cars using radar on people going the other way. It's about getting those interactions. We've gotten to the point where traffic stops are an excuse to go fishing for other stuff. "Do you have any drugs or illegal substances?" "Do you have a large amount of cash?" blah blah blah. If it was about getting people to slow down, they would have much more success with obvious police cars driving down the road or sitting in plain site.
I was stopped in one of those drug sweeps for failure to signal a lane change when I went to the left lane to give a police car on the shoulder room. All the cop wanted to do was look in my car. I was stopped and let go.
I was pulled over and searched as well a few years ago. LEO said I did not signal a lane change. I stated I had been in the same lane since I got on that street and had been for miles so when and where did that happen. He started his fishing routine to which I stated he just needed to give me the ticket so I could move on down the road. It went all the way to the idiot dog sniffing around my van. The wife and I quietly sat through this
and was informed we were to get out and stand on the curb. Mind you neither of us are drug users. What was a bit intense for those guys searching my van was the firearms they found./ We were on our wat North east to meet some friends for a day of gun powder therapy. Holy mother of God one of those fools went ape ****. This was the State boys by the way working the 38th st corridor. Cooler heads prevailed when some gold badge showed up and let us go. To say we were both seriously pissed off was no where near the actual level of pissed. Stupid dog routine is a farce. And just an excuse to get inside. **** that ****.
The look on those guys faces when they pulled out the custom stuff was priceless. ****ing idiots.

Reform for this kind of nonsense I could get behind, 'defunding' the police whatever that means not so much.

Something like 75% of the times drug sniffing dogs were used for reasonable suspicion to search a vehicle, no drugs were found. So in those cases the dogs were used as a RAS generator so that they could get around the rules that protect you from unreasonable searches. Just stop it. A stop shouldn't be a precursor to searching a vehicle.
Nice. That is exactly the crap I am talking about. That video someone posted of the guy pulled over for going 5 MPH under the speed limit is another good example.I was pulled over and searched as well a few years ago.

They had traffic stops before the war on drugs went into high gear. Just no where near the rate we do now.
Yeah, my wife was pulled over for that in the plains area of Colorado by a state trooper when we were on vacation. As far as the eye could see there was only us and a Truck that my wife passed. And that ********** pulled us over for that ****. Of course he went through the do you have any xyz in the car. No we don't. Then the smarmy ******* lectured us about signaling lane changes. He actually made my wife promise to signal in the future so that he could let her off with a warning.
No fan of defunding. None.
Just stop with the Bravo Sierra fishing expeditions.
I got the same line of crap from a Speedway cop last year. I was 5 over the limit but running right with traffic and he did the whole where you going where you been Bla Bla Bla. Shove that **** it is absolutely none of your damned business. You all know I am in lockstep with all of our LEO. But that crap irritates the hell out of me.

Well at least you missed out on the officer sniffy Bravo Sierra.
Well. He could have called for officer sniffy I guess. But he peered into a car packed with vacation crap with a grumpy upper-middle aged man in the passenger seat, an annoyed and nervous upper-middle aged woman behind the wheel. And a geeky teen lounging in the back seat, head phones on, playing video games, oblivious to what was going on. We couldn't have signaled family vacation any brighter if our grand cherokee had neon "vacation" lights.
