It's Broke

Must Eat Brains              LAWLESSNESS In case you haven't seen it, here's a kinda disturbing clip.  New Mexico State cop stops a car for speeding, 70 in a 55, and tells the driver to turn off the engine while he goes back to his cruiser for the routine wants and warrants thing. She hauls ass, so he goes after her and pulls her over again.  She's not particularly interested in getting a ticket and gives the guy some lip and then gets back in to drive off again. My guess is she had something to hide, but the fat cop who shoots at the vehicle with kids in it was either uninformed about the situation or just plain stupid.  A car full of kids would have sooner or later stopped somewhere or run out of gas.  Deadly force probably not called for here. I saw a discussion some time back on cutting down on speeders by equipping cop cars and toll booths with devices to shut down engines on targeted vehicles.  That'd work if it weren't cost prohibitive.  Every car would have to have a computer code built in with an ID linked to license plate so that when the proper authority hits the "kill" switch, it doesn't turn off all the cars in the area. One of the guys on the panel said it would add very little cost to the initial price of the vehicle, but it would cost millions to install in the police cars and other locations, plus it would require constant updating and be subject to human error in entering or deleting data.
