ya know, one basic problem they overlook when they make stupid decisions like this to further the aims of the police state, is that eventually it will come to a point, that the majority of the citizens realize there is zero upside to cooperating with police in any way. In fact, it may not even be worth it to pull over for them. The day that both statements are true may already have passed.
I came to the conclusion 10+ years ago that no matter how dire the situation, it can only be made worse by adding a cop.
