Read further in the article; FWPD was just part of this. This crap was all under the umbrella of a NHTSA study. The National Highway Safety Administration was running this show. Chilling, no?
If the FWPD had had any morals, they would not have been a party to this travesty. Texas, like most states has fallen very far with it's law enforcement. I remember years ago driving from Ft. Worth to DFW and seeing one of the “early” photo radar units (called Orbis as I recall), standing forlornly in the median, victim of a serious attack by a shotgun! That's the Texas Texans should bring back. Now to see this kind of “citizen retribution,” you have to go to Great Britain where they “set them alight, with a burning tyre.”
