Outside of holidays when they have extra staff on I would not expect much traffic enforcement. This is how it has been for nearly two decades now since the steep decline in officers began.

Doesn’t make it OK. They should do their jobs at least. ACAB.

They are doing their jobs. I'm certainly no apologist for them, but they work long and odd hours and don't have an easy job.

They don’t do anything. Pretty easy to not do anything.

They literally are not doing their jobs. Purposely.

If you see one they are most likely working on administrative bulls*it and are just trying to sit somewhere central to their patrol area so they can respond to a call within their assigned area quickly. For those whose areas are mainly highway, the priority is clearing disabled vehicles and accidents to prevent traffic jams and the additional fender benders those bring.

Plus no chase laws and the police accountability bill why do anything they don’t have to do? It doesn’t benefit them in any way

Chases still happen, and the accountability bill has little impact other than cops can't use the ol' "I smell weed" as a pretext.

The legal weed eliminates the “I smell weed” pretext. Not the accountability bill.
