re: The speed traps with an officer flagging people down

There is a cop that stands in the turning lane where I have to pick up my son on some days. I have come to a complete stop right besides him and asked him if he could please move so I could turn. Writes tickets in the turning lane with his butt hanging into traffic. Saw him almost get hit 2x as nobody can tell he pulled someone over because he hides his car in a parking lot. Just looks like someone turning. Dude is going to get killed one day.
