Houston Police
 
I usually hate on cops for generally being useless tax collectors, but today that is not the case. I think the rest of the country needs to take a few lessons from the way Texas operates, they do have some good ideas and policies. Not even gonna get into the Second Amendment freedoms they uphold (which I agree with), but instead of installing speed cameras or some other scam bullshit, their new actions help reduce true crime and help innocent people, +1 Texas!!

They need to adopt this in California and Florida.

We have plenty who sit behind the median waiting to nab someone going 5mph over the speed limit, as well. I agree that this is a good idea, though. It's still impossible to drive any kind of modded Civic/CRX/Integra/Prelude down here without it disappearing. The S2000 will be next once market value drops a bit more.

If I ever steal a car, I'll keep announcing, "God damn, this is the second time Grandma lost her keys and made me hotwire her car". Then, if it's a bait car, I'll pretend I mistook her car for this one and say the proof is on the video. :D

Dude I swear I've seen this on Cops like YEARS ago :suspect: and we do have it here in California too.. There was even a show on Court TV called "Bait Car" :LOL: I have no clue why they're giving Texas all the credit :shrug:

We've had it for a while too

maybe they should buy a few s2000's and leave em in bad neighbourhoods with the top's down and put some tracking units in the seats ^_^

I've definitely seen something like that on tv before. It was probably on tru tv, discovery, or tlc. one of those.
