Surprise, surprise!
The real surprise is that people tolerate it
I don't live in the US. But I really wouldn't want unpoliced roads. There are enough dangerous, angry morons on the streets who don't care about the rules and endanger the people around them.
I think it's absolutely necessary to police traffic. The only other option would be to get rid of private powered vehicles, which would also be a good option.
