Finally a political post , police departments have been leaving cars by the side of roads for many years , and it’s not because of defunding the police or to prepare for a BLM invasion. It would be foolish to think that the cars don’t slow down traffic and unless you take road day after day it works , it only takes a couple of people slowing down to slow down the rest . I also confess to going over speed limit and I’m so sorry that I’ve disrespected our countries laws lol

Not street, but the postal stations parking lots between 4 and 6 PM. :)

You're right it's going to get worse! Just as soon as a certain party gets in control or maybe when a certain person gets booted & they let this person (lady) step up. (not allowed to mention any names)

If there is a speeding problem, have the deputies do their job and write tickets. Maybe he can sell some of those unneeded vehicles and gain some cash for his department.

I'm pretty sure that this is one of those community service efforts. It is designed to give residents of TV who have run out of complaints due to Covid-19 a new item to type up on the on-line forums. Gives them something to do.

Yo .. i know that i slow down and check my speed when driving along a road when i see a police car down the road. Also. I know NOTHING about rules and regulations about asset relocation or their finances. When i worked for a gov agency the vehicles belonged to GSA not the agency.

The most dangerous 'roads' in TV are the roundabouts ... like all of them. I avoid whenever possible. If going from one end of TV to the other, I go around, usually 301. Yes, I know it longer in mileage but I feel safer and that's what matters to me. I leave enough spare time just in case of a passing train.
