I was thinking about the lack of police directing traffic the other day, and wonderring why nothing was being done.

I wonder if the police need to be called by Enamx to take care of a traffic situation, and Enamx maybe isn't calling them because now they would get a bill for additional police work. It's the only reason I can see, because it's all silly. The police and Enamx are both funded by our tax dollars, and even if there's 200 people who are 10 minutes later because of the lack of police, and those people each earn $20 an hour at their jobs, the lost time would more than pay for the police to show up.
