IMHO it’s a super poor move public relations wise by VPD, traffic enforcement is always a touchy issue because it ends up being the only type of police a normal person ever deals directly with in their life, so how they behave essentially gives the public their impression of being able to trust their police force... these kind of acts damage that reputation severely.
Yeah I was saying to my friends that real only way to combat this is if you had fuck you money, collected evidence for harassment (even tho rn it's only hearsay), sued the city and VPD for discrimination or smt, and paid the media to publish all of this.

It's a terrible PR move. And generally, the VPD has been pretty good on PR.

On the flip side, like I was saying, the car community has a terrible PR. Growing up, I remember wanting to work for an organization like Revscene or smt because while it was car focused, they were still trying to give back to the community. I'd love to be able to do something about our PR, the question is, what and how.
