What do you mean? Is it a bad idea to prompt people driving vehicles moving over 70 mph as to whether there was a speed trap? But then how will the next people know that need to stop speeding for the next couple miles before they can speed again without recourse?
I really don’t understand how this shit is even legal.
“Tell me where I can and can’t break laws that were literally put in place so I don’t accidentally fucking kill someone”.
It’s literally built to help people avoid the punishment made to keep people from doing something that’s literally dangerous to the people around them.
Seriously. Cops sitting to ticket people are essentially just applying an extra tax to fund their departments. Not giving that to them is a good thing.
I’ve more often seen unsafe driving conditions because of people slowing down to avoid a radar cop than when traffic is flowing predictably and consistently.
While I agree cops looking for money to fund their departments is bad, people willfully endangering those around them is objectively worse.
Speed limits are put in place to keep roads safer. Tickets are a thing meant to incentivize you not to do the dangerous thing that can hurt those around you.
This is literally a tool to help you avoid said punishment, which assists you in doing the dangerous thing with impunity.
I agree cops can be bad. I agree they sometimes are searching for a problem. I agree they often cause other problems.
But speed limits literally and undeniably enforce safety. Something that allows you to circumvent them without recourse literally assists people in doing the unsafe thing.
Sure, cops can be bad. But speeding is unsafe and therefore bad too. It’s not black and white.
You know how else you can stop cops from making this money back? Without assisting in dangerous road behavior? Literally obeying the fucking driving laws. They can’t give you a speeding ticket if you’re not fucking speeding.
