A group of
cop cars or motorcycles on the side of a large roadway; usually not a highway but a mainstreet with a large
gap between the nearest traffic lights; who have a radar pointing about a mile down the roadway. One of the officers will step into the middle of the road ahead and direct the speeding vehicle to the breakdown lane, or if the vehicle has passed, will
chase it down in the police
car.
Usually the purpose of this event is to get cheap tickets out of
people doing 5 miles over the speed limit. This works well since wealthier
people tend to have powerful luxury cars which can
go very fast without them even realizing it. While claiming to be 'keeping the roads
safe', they are merely looking for a cheap buck out of hardworking individuals. Driving in a straight line a little to fast isn't as dangerous as the assholes who switch lanes aggressively, cut faster moving traffic off, and tailgate. These pigs should be out patrolling, looking for aggressive drivers. Of course, if you're driving an expensive
car, you'll get pulled over for being the victim.
The cops sat in the breakdown lane with a radar, scamming people going 5-10 MPH over in order to get a quick buck for the local police station. Meanwhile, a shitbox Honda cuts off my Lexus, and the
cop 5 carlengths infront of him slams his brakes (real safe move
asshole), gets behind me and pulls ME over for tailgating (as if he could have assessed from that far ahead). I appealed that scam easily and got off free when the
pig didnt even show up at the appeal hearing... but next time I won't be so lucky since I'm foolish enough to drive a
car worth more than that
pig's annual earnings.
