I'm neither a boot licker nor anti-police, but typically would be more on the bootlicker side of the scale.
I say that to give credence to my observation- no where else in the world that I have driven (a fair number of places) do I feel like highway patrol is out to get you the way they are here. Only in America do we have frickers hiding in ditches and behind trees pointing a radar gun to make a quick ticket.
Even if someone is parked on the side of the road watching the highway, people "speed" by without incident. No slamming on brakes, etc. They're there to catch actual assholes driving unsafe.

You ever been to Viriginia? In Louisiana you get about 10 mph cushion from most LSP on the interstate. Virginia HP gives nothing.
ETA: I reread your post and see you are making an comparison internationally. Virginia still sucks.
