I see ALOT of impatient people pulling out in front of people doing 55mph (or less) in a 65 mph zone, people piling up 5/6 deep in the intersection EVERY day... how about we ask the deputy sitting in the ditch to come out and start ticketing people for OBVIOUS traffic violations???
Once again a very obvious solution to a problem, thanks for calling it out JodiFL. Issue is that would require our Sheriff to be PROACTIVE and to ENFORCE the law. There are dozens of violations there each day, yet I've never seen anyone pulled over. The car with lights is just a show so they can say, "see, you complained and we did something."
This is just another example of the epic failure in coordination between the BCC, Sheriff, and State that has now cost a life and ruined another.
I believe this was addressed in a prior post (under local govnt) several months ago.
People are quick to praise the Sheriff when he does good (chasing bad guys, catching predators, all the fun and obvious stuff). Where he has always had challenges is in the not so fun areas like traffic enforcement, parking violations and private property rights.
