[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 586359, member: 11791"] Interesting, SuZir. We used to live in a city well known for the speed of it's traffic... (when weather didn't result in the roads being shut down due to accidents...) The police there had an interesting tactic: They would drive the major roads in MARKED cars, at just over the speed limit. Two of them, in two separate lanes (three or four lanes each way...), one driving a few hundred feet behind the other. They'd drive from one end of the city to the other during rush hour. People were free to pass them... but only a few dare-devils would do that. They never pulled over the "dare-devils". Never broke their speed. But they "set a good example" and after a few months of doing this, the average speed on that roadway dropped by at least 10 kmh. Then they'd go pick on another road for a few months, and kept the cycle going. People called in complaining about the cops "wasting time cruising around the city". The Chief had to come clean and explain that they were actually doing something... using the above stats... [/QUOTE]
