minus-squareskulblakalinkfedilink30•9 days agoYou ever tried to pull over an entire freeway full of cars at once?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink15•9 days agoA single cop car on the side of the road can get everybody to magically follow the speed limit.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink14•9 days agoThat’s really dependant on location. I have had plenty of road trips up and down the I5 where groups of cars pass cops on the side of the road going 80, and no one slows down and the cops do nothing. Source: I’m one of those drivers.
minus-squareLousyCornMuffinslinkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-28 days agosame on I10. that bit in texas where the limit goes up to 80 is nice tho
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish7•8 days agoFor a minute, maybe. Foot goes back down when the cop’s out of view in the mirrors.
minus-squareLousyCornMuffinslinkfedilinkEnglish2•8 days agonah, it just gets them to slow to 20 over the limit here
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•8 days agoNot personally, no - but the police would only need to catch a handful each day to get things moving a little more safely in the area.
