CPD, it's time to take the exit ramp and leave ineffective practices behind.

Let's focus on what truly matters for our community's safety. We, the people, demand CCPSA to advocate for a 3-part policy that ends pretextual traffic stops outright, limit stops for low level traffic violations and end suspicionless consent searches!

Pretextual traffic stops are a waste of department resources with minimal impact on safety outcomes—less than 1% of these stops result in contraband or firearm recovery, 2.2% in arrests, and 3.7% in traffic citations. Meanwhile, CPD's 911 response rate is low.

Drake may have lost to Kendrick in the rap beef, but when it comes to pretextual stops, he knows what's up.  It's time to make the right call. Advocate for smarter policies that prioritize real community safety.

Ending Pretextual traffic stops is so demure! These harmful stops are not mindful, and definitely not cutesy… CPD remember the job you were hired for.
