I’d also like to add I’ve lived almost half my adult life in the US, being from the UK originally and encounters with the police in each country has a very different feel. It subjectively feels like the peelers in the UK have more latitude and responsibility than the cops in the US and I’ve often wondered if this was due to the Peelian Principles. It also feels like the US has cops everywhere, unlike the UK, though I suppose there are massive regional differences.
