I don't understand all these unmarked police cars. Why should police be allowed to do this? If I can't tell that its actually a police car why should I even pull over?

It's amazing that cop's want to spend all this time and energy on policing minor traffic violations with the crime and drug problems that some districts have. I guess it's more profitable to give people traffic tickets than to chase down drug dealers, thieves, and crooks.. all of which have more of an impact on our community than somone going 10mph over the speed limit.

yeah they are all military-undercover hiding in the bushes and driving unmarked cars when busting "speeders" but watch when something happens...they just wait till they have 10 people for backup and fill out a report after everything settles down...

It's easier to chase someone in a car, then running around chasing the real bad guys, like drug dealer. Have you seen some of these pigs, they really look like pigs. Plus giving out tickets is more profitable. Lets see, take a drug dealer to jail, we, tax payer is paying for that, then they go to trial, we pay for that, then they are found guilty so they go to jail, we pay for that too. Once the jail is full, they get released and this whole thing starts over again. Compare that to, get a ticket, pay for it. State get's money for that pays for new (seized) car and convert it to undercover cars. Cops gets to drive new car. Hmmm, I think there is more insentives for them to give out tickets, wouldn't you agree. Plus there would be a less chance they will get hurt doing it, as to trying to catch a bad guy. If they get hurt, we pay for that too.
