Be careful what you wish for.
The Philadelphia City Council thinks minorities are bad drivers.
Who defines “minor traffic stops.”
No more license fees:)
The article seems to be saying the infractions are things like expired emissions stickers or improperly affixed license plates. Quite frankly, those are probably BS stops/revenue collection stops. If that is the case, let’s get those BS laws removed from the books rather than just picking and choosing what laws are enforced.
You’re right...
Honestly, these city leaders can’t grasp any correlation
between some of these hair-brained ideas, and future
problems that might be caused by them.
It’s as if any stooge could come up with an idea, and it
would be implemented, no questions asked.
I’m reminded of the movie Bedazzled. The Devil is a woman,
and she gets this guy to wish for things.
Each one of them winds up in total disaster.
Now it’s as if she is offering deals to today’s leaders,
“Just make a wish, and I’ll take care of it.” Then the
trouble begins.
We don’t get do overs either.
oh, this is a good idea... /s

So in Philly turn signal are optional and “Stop” signs are merely suggestions.
News of the Future Now:
Philadelphia officials blamed ‘racist’ insurance companies for “unfairly” raising auto insurance rates on city residents.
When I attended university I obtained work with the campus police and county police. It was a rural college town (Kansas State University). When I had opportunity to ride-along I questioned the focus they placed on addressing the minor traffic/vehicle violations. Back then (mid 80s) FBI statistics informed officers that 80% of fugitive felons were captured with these ‘minor’ stops. I doubt it has changed much since then.
Stage #2, is a rude awakening when you cross over the Philly streets into Montgomery County's jurisdiction and your tail light broken ends up getting you locked up for unpaid child support, past tickets and warrants, drug charges for the weed in your car, and having no insurance.
Blame Philadelphia city council for that!
No more “broken window” policing, I see.
Democrats are the enemy of civilization.
Go right ahead, Philadelphia, step on that garden rake, like they did in Seattle and Baltimore and most of Minnesota.
Define “minor” in this instance.
This should be interesting. The Democrap domestic enemies force cops to abuse the public to raise revenue and now they are ending it? Just wait till they find out there don’t have the funds to pamper criminal foreign invaders, this will change in a second.
Like everything Leftists do, the question would be: "who characterizes traffic stops that promote discrimination, and who get to characterize what traffic stops promote public safety?"
Given the way they operate, they will simply change rules on the fly to accord with their political goals and prosecute the "right" people accordingly.
The left keeps insisting on demonstrating their lack of smarts.
