And I wish the cops here would be as zealous about the laws prohibiting distribution of Class A and Class B drugs as they currently are about the ones concerning right of way in the rotary. We all know which low-rent motels around town are like a Baghdad bazaar when it comes to dealing.
It's all economics. Most people just pay up the traffic fine. You kick the door in on a drug bust and you could get shot and then spend time in court to bust a dopehead who doesn't have a penny to his name.

In my small town, any "crimes" listed on the blotter are somehow a result of a traffic stop on one othe three main roads through town.
