    If the reason to have speed traps is to get people to reduce their speed then that guy was literally getting people to reduce their speed.

    The police need reformed because they try to get people to do bad as a way of making money.

    That makes society literally worse instead of better.

      Pretty telling that they’re not really about safety when officers will speed after someone at 100+ cause they got their feefees hurt in the exact same area the speed trap is.

      I mean if the police wanted to enjoy their job they each would get a day to park a cruiser up the street … and then change into civilian clothes and sit in a lawn chair up the street drinking a beer smoking a cigar holding a sign saying “speed trap ahead” and then calling in anyone that ignores it with it being tracked by the squad car’s camera.

      that would be how you police if you want to have fun.

      (this is my most brilliant idea ever. and i yield it freely to law enforcement)
