While I would agree with your sentiment, there is more usually more than one on-duty cop at a time. There are sections of the police for traffic, drugs, gangs, investigations, etc. and this one looks to be policing traffic. The police need money to continue operating, which is why they give tickets for speeding, even if it's a super dick move like this video shows. This isn't "wasting time" to the police.
"The police need money to continue operating..."! WTF!?!? Ssooo...., they somehow aren't whole large percentages of entire city, county, state, and (AND) federal tax budgets?!?! They need to harrass people driving to pay for themselves now?!? Your whole comment is so stupid on so many levels, but that part is probably the most mornic part.
They aren’t just sitting there waiting for speeding vehicles, they’re running every license plate that rolls by, which alerts to any discrepancy with registration, drivers license status or lapsed insurance. These are always secondary charges, but an officer can pull anyone over and claim the tail-light appeared faulty, or “Blinking”. They are simply Road Pirates extorting money from those who don’t have much of it.

Sure adds to the proof that you're a good, law-abiding citizen who goes out of his way to alert reckless drivers to temporarily slow down. Way ro go, Good Citizen. Maybe they'll give you an award.
Alert reckless drivers ahaha. They pull people over for going 5 miles over the limit.. he's getting people to go from the normal speed we all drive to the 'legal' waste of time they set.
@@omgitzsirairhorn That's not true. All the LEO's I've worked with over 32 years give a margin of at least 5 (and generally 10) MPH before they ticket.
If the goal is to stop people from speeding, the sign was more effective, however if generating revenue was the goal, the ‘speed trap’ is more effective.
This is great. Keep up the good work! Just remember it becomes illegal if the sign says "Stop, slow down, etc" just don't put any orders on there so the pigs can't get us for that.
I grew up in TN and it was customary to warn people going in the opposite direction by flashing your lights on and off quickly. It slowed down everyone, prevented tickets, and wasn't costing taxpayers a dime. I still do it and live in KY now. I can tell those who understand what it means by the brake lights.
I can agree with that. Like someone mentioned, a sign will slow down more than 1 car. Our city started planting dummy cop cars where people are known to speed. It worked! Imagine that!
I am so glad you, did this because here in White Pine, Tennessee and most of the surrounding Cities and County’s here in Tennessee you see these speeding Traps all over and it just sickening how much they the cops do this and then they will also hide and do this and if you don’t know the area then you really get caught in them! Sad thing is the cops in the Tennessee area are rude and hateful and very self righteous A holes and they have no respect for citizens!
If you think that’s funny, try driving around with your own radar gun in your car. The cops hate that! They tried everything to arrest me for it! Probably because I had one and they didn’t.🤣
@@Razgriz85 I was thinking about building something that triggers the device that they use to detect radar detectors, but technically isn't a radar detector. Would be a really nice way to legally screw with them.
Back in the 70’s at trade shows they gave away cardboard boxes. Folded one direction they looked like a radar detector. Folded the opposite way they looked like a tissue box, but you had room to put your detector inside of it! You glued a tissue on top for added effect! The detectors were regenerative back then and couldn’t be detected. You turned them on and increased the gain until they beeped, and backed it off a little. Later on they came up with superheterodyne detectors. They actually have a small sweep transmitter inside of them that the detector detectors look for. But high-end detectors are well shielded and are near impossible to detect. Research the “Stalker” detector detector. We tried designing some jammers back then, but they weren’t reliable over different brands of guns. Laser units work differently. They transmit an unfocused laser that measures distance twice over a precise time. Then calculates the speed by how far you traveled over that time. It’s always been a cat and mouse game!
My wife was pulled over by an officer stating the reason he stopped her was she flashed her headlights to warn other drivers of police presence, lectured her and issued her a ticket. The statute he ticked her under was for failing to dim her headlights. Flashing to signal is a protected free speech activity here. My wife simply paid the ticket though
I did a similar thing in Denver Colorado. A guy was so happy that I kept him from being caught speeding that he came around the block and gave me ten bucks! LOL... I love this!!! BTW I did have an interaction with the police who tried to tell me I was interfering with a police officer. Nuf said that he gave up trying to intimidate me.
