One town I lived in had a promotion where police would pull people over to give them some gift certificate for good driving.

I want to be positive, but I kinda see it as a excuse for more police contacts.. if you don't pull over for the lights and sirens for your "gift card" is it now evading arrest?

Pizza for the obedient, bullets for the rebels.

ACAB means ACAB.

This is a publicity stunt.

And you know why the picture only contains white people.

I LOVE this! TRAINS them Early to OBEY OR DIE!

This is such a conflicting story.

On one hand, this is how it should be: incentivizing safe behavior.

On the other hand, this is absolutely for publicity and secularly abusing children to try and repair the irreparable damage they've done to their own image.

Remember: if the law isn't on your side, neither are the cops.

Cranford is a town in the US, for everybody else.

This isn't uplifting. Cops doing PR, borderline indoctrination is not uplifting at all. I've taught my kid not to talk to police, don't run from them, but try to avoid them unless they're specifically calling to you, if you do talk to them, do it with respect, even if you don't mean it. This was after a cop pulled him and his friends off to the side to give em pokemon cards. Cheap asses gave em those party packs with 4 ultra common cards in them. Not a single 1st edition Charizard or anything. Shame.

We'd have a better world if we rewarded good behavior vs punishing bad imho

Indoctrinate the kids into obeying authority.

And so all the kids are safe from being crushed by SUVs. No need for bike lanes. No need for traffic reduction. No need to ticket drivers not yielding to pedestrians or passing cyclists dangerously. No need to remove parking. No need to reduce the size or speed of cars. And turning right on red is a god given right.

Helmets are all that is needed to be safe in the streets! That and obeying the law.

I guess I get the intent. It's better than nothing. But it's also pretty depressing when you see beyond the attempt at fake security.

love that they're encouraging kids to trust cops 🙃
