From an enforcement standpoint the town has too much traffic on many roads to easily and safely go after traffic offenders for a single officer in traffic. You can’t just turn a you-ey on Campbell for simple traffic stuff. For some reason the PD still hasn’t figured out that they could do one cop calls in a violation and another cop 2 blocks away pulls the offender over in a much safer manner. It’s not ideal nor efficient and doesn’t have to be done every day but even a few days a month could set a precedent that there is a risk…

For instance I used to go through Ks and Chestnut frequently…the number of people who trail after a red light on left turns is non-stop. But instead they sit on the north side of Mueller to catch speeders on a divided road with almost no crossroads along the way. ProTip: they love to run radar on 30mph streets.
