[They draw chalk outlines around your body]
I think if one is going to work for the police, the best job would be “Chalk Outline Guy”. The perpetrators are gone and they ask “Could you just sorta trace around the body with a piece of chalk?”.

Ah, like those small towns in Kansas (and elsewhere) where the speed limit drops from highway speeds to ridiculously-low levels in a flash. A great way to grab cash if someone misread a sign. Jackpot!

True, but they all seem to want to be the guy who murders citizens for failing to “Respect mah authoritah!”

Like Big Cabin, Oklahoma.
One of the darndest speed traps ever.
Oklahoma was full of speed traps back in the day.
Most of them got their ability to issue speeding tickets rescinded by the state legislature.

Franklin county in Indiana is/was another one.
Get a ticket in Franklin, Indiana and you go to court twice.
Once to plead guilty or not guilty and again for the actual decision by the judge.
The ticketing officer isn’t required to appear unless you request he be there.
The judge rules over his fiefdom with an adoring cast of court jesters.
They love ticketing truck drivers in Franklin county.
