I appreciate police officers. They do an amazing job that I'd never do myself. Think about it - every time they stop the vehicle, they are risking their lives. Are they going to be shown a driver license with a smile, scorn or a bullet? Tough job.
On the other hand, often when I see an unusually slow traffic, there is a traffic cop controlling the traffic. It is true that they are called only when there is a trouble, but too often I have seen them slowing down traffic to crawl, when the only trouble was that traffic lights were not working. Why is that? Is it because people are not intimidated by technology, but are scared of scrutiny by a live policeman? Can bad conciseness slow down the traffic? Some studies confirm it and a proof is that people tend to slow down when they see radar telling them their current speed, even if there is no punishment attached to it. Maybe. I still prefer smooth traffic w/o thinking of what did I do wrong this time. :)

Да ли се неко сећа ко је Јован Буљ?
Он је био легенда. Потражите га на ЈуТјубу. Он је био најпопуларнији саобраћајац у Београду, али познат широм старе Југославије. Елеганција којом је контролисао саобраћај је била на нивоу представа Бољшој Театра.

Можда би требало пуштати његове филмове данашњој генерацији контролора саобраћаја тако да се раскрснице брже и боље пролазе када је тамо жив човек, него лампице у три боје.
