yesterday at work I drove through a traffic stop 3 times and had to wait in resultant traffic 3 times for about 10 minutes each. They were doing "seat belt" checks, but the officers got right in your face and sniffed loudly as they asked if you were having a good day. I politley remarked, the first time through, that I thought it was terrific that they were checking for folks wearing seat belts and checking for drunk drivers, but I asked how many drunk drivers they expected to find in the middle of a week day.
I called my boss and told him about the traffic situation and that it wasted 30 minutes of our time. He said he's going to send a letter and a bill to the chief of police for our time, $43.
It will be great if that bill gets paid.
