Meanwhile, the same year, 2013, 95 killed by impaired drivers, 115 killed by speeding, 91 by distracted drivers...and these were solved "murders" .


Yep, lest take guys away from investigating and attempting to prevent 303 "murders" in 2013 alone and focus on 290 over a 12 year period. If you taked a rough estimate, there are 10 killed in crashes for every 1 murder. Just a thought?
You list some pretty serious infractions as justification for putting 5 IRSU cops on intersection duty looking for drivers doing a rolling stop at a stop sign with nearly no traffic around. Or for peering into cars to make sure the cell phone playing music is "securely mounted to the dash of the vehicle"
