Since covid, I’ve seen more traffic violations than ever before and have seen 1 traffic stop (literally). People drive fast, pass in the bike lane or in the street parking, rarely stop at stop signs, and do not yield to pedestrian crossing. In Indianapolis, the police budget is 1/3 of the entire city tax revenue, so how do we have safer streets?
:edit: shared link is 100 pedestrians were reported hit in August 2024
I didn’t know how much the sheriff has to do with impd department policy/culture. In a metro department, I think that’s the chief of police, which I think is appointed?
Probably badger the city council and your local reps.
