You can style this observation as liberal, libertarian, or conservative, but regardless of the wrapper it’s the withdrawal of an important public service.
The SF Police Commission has real control over how SF police do their jobs.
They don’t advocate for public safety. They continually look for ways to hamstring officers just trying to do their jobs.

They are literally being told not to do traffic stops. As in other major cities. People starting to regain senses so maybe won't last long.
I want to see the corresponding graph of driving-related injuries & deaths. I’m expecting a huge increase if traffic stops & tickets aren’t primarily a means to conduct illegal searches, seizures, &/or generate revenue.
Maybe SF’s resources can be reallocated to serious crimes.
▪️It's not a crime if everyone does it.
▪️It's against the law to single out an individual if everyone is doing it.
- The law of civil disobedience unless of course, it's for a liberal cause then more resources are thrown at it, the crueler the better.

The big question is why? Is this a police response to efforts to prevent stops for expired tags, etc. Our Park Police in MPLS have reportedly stopped enforcing any moving violations (for several years) on parkways.
