Sheriff and Police Departments all over the country suspending traffic operations due to lack of budget for cost of gas A local sheriff near us put out a public announcement they are suspending all traffic enforcement efforts due to the lack of funding for gas at nearly $5.00/gallon. (Reading between the lines my assumption is they will not by lying in wait for speeders, stop sign roll throughs, red light runners, etc.) Quoting: ChivalryKnight I have read other departments as well are doing triage of sorts to ascertain how they can drive to and attend only the most serious of matters and encourage citizens to call or come to the police station for lesser matters. This seems to go hand in hand with the "reset" protocol for defunding police via the back door; fuel cost. This is a very intended consequence actually. By pulling enforcement away from key areas they open you up to being victimized. And remember, if you're white it's basically illegal to defend yourself from crime at this point.
