Hi Gogs,
Sneaky tactics. It would be very easy to take either side of the arguement but there is no doubting a certain ground swell of opinion in the way the motorist is seen as a source of revenue. Motorists pay fines. Burglars cost money to process. It is a simple law of economics.
If the police deliberately set up a situation that creates all the right circumstances for a motorist to break the law by creating frustration and unnecessary delay then they are not upholding the spirit of the law but being a sneaky dirty rotten SOAB. When the traffic police really need the support of the general public they should not be surprised when they turn their back.
No matter what the police may say. THERE IS A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE between your average speeding offence and mugging some old lady. However, one is easier to catch.
Am I right or wrong. Do you see this sort of tactic employed in other countries.
