re: #4 HappyWarrior

Thanks for your personal anecdote. I am curious how on earth are these constitutional and lawful to do? If Freddie was indeed nickle rided, the officers who did that ot him need to go to jail for a very long time and never wear badges again.

Not one officer has ever been prosecuted for nickel rides in Philly or Baltimore. (Baltimore had a fatal nickel ride ten years ago. The guy had a broken neck when they reached the precinct and he died in surgery. The driver admitted she reached the station in less than half time she would have if she had observed traffic speed limits. Nothing happened to her)

Philly is where the term originated, btw.
