I was thinking about this on the ride home today...
What do the police in your area seem to concentrate on the most?
Speeding?
Complete Stops?
Illegal passing?
Not yielding?
Slower traffic to the Right?
No front licence plate?
Illegal Mods? (i.e. tint, licence plate covers and surrounds, add-on lights, etc....)
Or something else?

stabbings, shootings, assaults.

I regularly see people going 50 in a 25 passing a cop and they don't care.... they're worked hard enough most of the time with the serious stuff that they let a lot of other things slide.

 

While I didn"t actually spell it out, I thought I had made it clear that I was referring to your local Highway Patrol???

 

I'd go with speeding in that case. Actually the NCHP is doing their yearly two week crackdown on speeding. They usually get tons of people in that time, and they're really sneaky about it. As for license plates we don't have front ones here.

 

Reckless driving, tailgating,speeding andone driveroccupied vehicles in HOV lanes.

 

The NYPD seems to be non-existent out here. I've gotten away with plenty of reckless driving...

 

RUNNIN YELLOW or REDLIGHTS.

 

Though I did get pulled over once for a tail light out (one of my LEDs was acting up,) the cops 'round these parts seem mainly interested in speeders and drivers that don"t come to a complete stop.
What really pisses me off is that they pay no attention to the slower traffic to the right rule.And sometimes they ARE the slower traffic in the left. Hey, if they"re going slower than the posted speed limit, I"ll pass them!!
Big trucks who"s speed limit is sometimes 5 mph slower than cars justloping alongin the right lane (or BOTH lanes)and slowing everybody else down. This often causes other driver"s to pass on the right, something I was taught to be a no-no, yet no one seems to care!!!??
Have the rules of the road changed that much, or are they simply being ignored by those that are supposed to enforce them?

 

speeders. or to see if you stole your car or not[:@], or if you have insurance or your plates are up todate. tahts about it. otherwise cops dont care here.... well mostly its like they want the 50 KM over speeders so they get a bonus... hmmmm

 

AFAIK passing on the right is legal, yet frowned upon. I would much rather pass someone on the right than have traffic backed up 10-12 cars as frequently happens when one inconsiderate a$$ can't find the skinny pedal on the right.

It's kind of like farting at a funeral. It's frowned upon, but there isn't really anything that says you can't. lol
