People who want to do bad, IE, driving, will do so, when they think no police are around. To make sure people drive safe, it is good to have Police in hiding, because a driver wont know, when some police is watching, from behind tree. Drive with care, then you do not have to worry, if a Police man is behind a tree, or even up a tree.!

I know the one and only time I was speeding I was caught... Now I drive like a little old lady. It makes my eldest daughter crazy. I drive a Mustang and so she thinks I am ridiculous.
If the police didn't conceal themselves then they wouldn't be able to give out as many tickets... quotas would not be met and their wages couldn't be paid.
Traffic violations actually keep our taxes lower!

I resist the urge by driving around corners faster than I should! That little car handles very fine! My thinking is they can't clock you on a tight curve. :D
I may joke but actually where I grew up we take a course on defensive driving... this course has stayed with me and I do drive like a turtle with a bit of zip.
I always watch the speed limits, so it does not affect me at all. I live in a small town and everyone knows where the police is hiding, except the tourists. Many get caught speeding.However on Motorcycle week, the Police is very visible and are out in great numbers. It does not matter to me, wether they are hiding or beeing visible, I am always aware of the speed limit and dont push my luck.

I drive a lot of miles and always over the speed limit, but just under the point where they start writing tickets. I don't slow down just because I come upon a cop and have never gotten a ticket on the open road (only in small rural towns). I appreciate the police being there whether they are hiding or out in the open, and firmly believe they only write speeding tickets to those that run at excessive speeds.

Many times i ask myself where are the police when you see drivers doing illegal u-turns, not indicating, speeding.I say more police on the roads the better.As for hiding, if that's what it takes to catch the wrong doers "so be it".

Cops are a money machine. In Jersey every five blocks there's a roadside check for credential, inspection stickers, etc; This in my opinion is harassment. Car crime (overdue inspection) is the least of our problems. They should park there ass in a crack infested neighborhood to deter crime.
