I read the entire article trying to find the rationale on why this cuts down on prostitution.
- brokenmachine 8y agoThey're bringing in a weird traffic rule so the police can selectively pull over whoever they want who happens to make the mistake of falling in their cunning illegal left-turn trap, thus giving the illusion of probable cause for a traffic stop.
- code_duck 8y agoI see. I was theorizing it cut down on certain circular cruising behavior, perhaps, or the ability to pull off the road to drop off or pick someone up.
- brokenmachine 8y agoYes, it's a bit of a clickbaity title. Another title could be, "LAPD is trying to misuse obscure traffic laws in order to search people without probable cause". But I guess that's clickbaity too.
