You should be HAPPY that the police are so vigilant in your neck of the woods.

True story - I had my car (which I rarely drove in the first place) wrecked while I was making a legal U turn in downtown LA about 5 weeks ago. A speeding driver in a big SUV ran a red light, smashed two vehicles in the intersection, then crushed my passenger side door (nobody in it fortunately) rendering my car undriveable. They then took off, hit-n-run felony, and went so fast that nobody got the plate info. 2 sheared off bumpers, tons of broken glass including my entire half windshield, and other debris in the middle of a really busy intersection. 3 calls to 911 from the 3 crashed cars (fortunately nobody injured) the moment we were hit.

It took the cops nearly 2 hours to even show up on the scene. This is at 8PM Thursday night in front of one of the busiest restaurants in Los Angeles. With lots of debris in the intersection.

You think cops would even blink an eye even if someone was stealing a bike in front of the police station around here? They barely even show up for felony hit and run crimes!
