When did law enforcement give up on traffic violators?

And I'm not talking about BS speed traps. The road is full of dangerous careless and reckless drivers. Aggressive speeders, light running, tailgating etc.

Probably when prosecutors refused to prosecute people for doing stupid shite on the roads.

You can blame Floyd and the race baiters.

No cop is gonna put his arse on the line for some stupid traffic ticket. They are gonna get through the day. Clock out and hopefully retire after 20 years or ride a desk.

They haven't cited left lane campers for as long as I remember, so as far as I'm concerned, it's Mad Max time. Shiny and chrome!

it is really getting on my nerves too. I was driving in my own neighborhood the other day and a driver in an escalade sped up to drive around me to get to the light before me.

Around the time every person behind the wheel starting driving with their face in a mobile phone.

I always seem to get stuck behind a left lane blocker with Texas plates on the interstate. And I'm in Florida, it's not even that damned close.

I like the ones pulling two vehicles behind them with like a Volkswagen Jetta.

They don't enforce the litter laws, that's for sure.

In some cities: not worth the hassle. If either party gets aggressive it can end bad for both. Some of the cities with Soros DAs they may drop charges for the perps anyway so it isn’t worth cops potentially losing their life or freedom

Let me guess, almost all of them are driving F-250s?

The real threat on the roads is oblivious motherfrickers on their phones.

If cops were actually proactive about fighting crime, instead of waiting on the side of the interstate for it to come to them, they’d quickly fill their ticket books

Drive around. You’ll find them easily

I see at least 6 people a day on my daily drive playing on their phones on the interstate.
