The fatality rate on America's roads remains higher than before the pandemic, and some blame the increase on less traffic policing.
have adopted formal policies limiting strops for minor violations, sometimes called"pretextual stops," because they give police a justification to stop a car they find suspicious for other, less articulable reasons.for certain non-moving violations, such as expired license tags and obstructions hanging from the rear-view mirror.
As these new policies reduce"contacts" between police and citizens, some wonder if that has also reduced drivers' impression that they'll be stopped for more serious violations, such as running red lights. At the same time, Adkins says the Governors Highway Safety Association believes in equitable enforcement, and could accept restrictions on stops for technical violations — as long as drivers are still stopped when they're doing something dangerous.
But privately, many police believe letting drivers get away with small violations does make traffic more dangerous. There's a theory in policing that what deters people from breaking the law is not the severity of the potential punishment, but theof getting caught. That would explain why speeds go down around marked speed cameras.
