[quote=WCTMAN,304565]I admit that I make some fairly sarcastic remarks here sometimes, and maybe i should apologize if i occassionally offend anyone. But, on the subject of traffic police, at least here in Xi'An, let me say this: in 3 years here, i haven't seen them stop anybody for anything. But, I do see them drive their family and friends around to the shopping centers, and I see them sitting 4 to a car or van, with their feet hanging out the windows, smoking cigarettes. I have seen drivers pull the most boneheaded, careless driving stunts ( like doing 10 point u - turns on busy roads ), blocking traffic in both directions, and the police don't do a thing. I have been in taxi's that have cut off police cars, avoiding contact by mere inches, and again, the police do nothing. Maybe you have to hit and kill somebody before they will get out of car and see what is going on. As a result, nobody respects them, since they know that the police can't or won't be bothered to do their jobs, like issue tickets. Until they do, anarchy will be the order of the day on the roads here.[/quote]
