Seeing as perception is sometimes reality (as evidenced by most people's perception of police being painted heavily by either a polite, friendly encounter vs a rude, intimidating one) it's a wonder why Calgary Police don't put a heavy, heavy emphasis on polite, friendly public interactions in ANY situation where it's possible.
I'm not talking about the guy tweaking out and being rude to the cops and posing a possible danger, or even the person going dangerously fast. But just the day to day ticketing situations. Go out of their way to take an annoying practice (getting a ticket doesn't make anyone's day better) and try to be as polite as possible and not take out a previous public encounter with a rude pisshead on the guy going 62 in a 50 zone.
