I am not advocating it, but I have to p;oint out that at high speed vehicles going 60 mph are essentially stationary objects. The laws of physics prevent them from doing things that are too unpredictable.
I really do believe that if there were NO “to serve and protect” team out there the statistics would not change appreciably. The sheep just have to have the occasional presence of the “representative of the gummint” on the streets to keep them in their place. IMHO.
When i lived in Canada there was/is a 50 mile strech of the 401 hwy between Kitchener Ont. and Toronto Ont. the cops let be known would’nt be patroled for speeding during rush hour,traffic flows at approx 100mph with absolutely zero increase in major accidents.
