The whole "needing backup"thing can only go so far though. There is no reason to search someones car, asking for 3 backup units, directing traffic around the stop .. for going a little too fast.

It's true that everyone in todays world need to be cautious, but the police around here srsly have nothing better to do. Another example of that is I live across the street from my church's parking lot. almost EVERY night you can catch 2-3 cars sitting side by side .. for hours. Talking about nothing one would assume due to its regular occurances and legth of time.

I thought the cops were stalking me, or checking out the house for a little while there until I got my licence and when driving around at 12-1am you can catch this happening all over town. 2-3 cars sitting in parking lots. It's dumb.
