New Hampshire is a very rural area. Crime-wise, cops aren’t off their wits trying to make time to handle excessive amounts of calls. Cops in New Hampshire are more likely to focus on things like the lights on your car and pull you over, because other than house parties, there’s not much else to focus on.

Meanwhile, in New York, Boston, or Philadelphia, cops are more-likely to turn their head to things such as a broken headlight, because they’re more preoccupied with other issues.

Also, understand that New Hampshire cops – even troopers – are A LOT friendlier than cops from other states. We were driving along I90 in New York, and a cop acted as if he was about to pull a gun out on my 50 year old 5’2 RNA mother for speeding (who is so used to the decency she receives from NH police). So while they are more likely to pull you over for tiny things, you should take note that they’re pretty understanding with a lot of things.

A month with a broken headlight is kind of ridiculous anyway.

Now the statists of NH have a new Orwellian tool at their disposal, police having NEW reason to look into every motorist’s car to see what they are doing with their hands. (Hopefully, they will see more than they bargained for and stop the practice!!!!!) But seriously, how do they prove the violation? I mean can you really prove what someone was doing behind the wheel other than judging the movement of the vehicle? This is soooo big bro. Who wants cops staring into their car under the guise of safety? Does such an encroaching police state really make us “safer”? Safety is the buzz word for give gov more power. It likely will require more evidence to hold up, such as “give me that device, I wanna check the text log to see it u just sent a text”. If refused, it may require contacting the cell provider, more data mining Bushie boy luvs, only at the locoal level. More gov at all levels. How wonderful. From Patriot act to local driving safety, does anyone really believe safety as opposed to control is the real agenda???????
