Downtown Deputies: Traffic Stops or Invisible Tickets? Spoiler: No Tickets

The Downtown Safety Patrol’s traffic stop reviews reveal a baffling trend: deputies pull people over but virtually never issue tickets or arrests, as if 'Stop and Frisk' got demoted to 'Chat and Wave.' No flashy amounts, no mugshots, just an investigative report quietly confirming that law enforcement here moonlights as part-time friendly neighborhood talkers. Apparently, if you fancy being pulled over downtown, you’re more likely to get a polite conversation than a citation. Could it be their enforcement motto is 'We stop traffic but not trouble?' It’s both comforting and frustrating, much like buffering videos on a good internet day.
