Show Notes
Clevelands Police Chief Dorothy Todd is sounding the alarm on a surge in traffic law violations, as drivers grow emboldened by strict pursuit rules. These rules, implemented after a deadly chase in 2014, limit chases to serious crimes and require supervisor approval. The result? A sharp decline in traffic enforcement, with ticket issuance down 11% and court cases plummeting from 75,442 in 2015 to an average of 25,131 from 2022-2025. City leaders are grappling with the balance between public safety and officer safety, with some advocating for a revisit of the pursuit policy, while others push for alternatives like road fixes and mailed tickets.
