When city police forces go on strike against the city for not giving them raises it often takes the form of solving "crime with a victim" while ignoring all the traffic stuff, intoxication stuff and fishing stuff that rakes in $$ through fines in order to stick it to the city. Other than a few Karens who write angry FB posts about people riding dirtbikes on the street as though they're real motorcycles it's generally a boon for the citizenry.
I think the most recent city to have this kind of strike was Baltimore in the 2015-18ish time range.
