Local motorists report that Officer Dave Thompson's speed trap was significantly less effective this week after he was observed attempting to conceal his motorcycle behind a decorative mailbox approximately 18 inches tall.
"I could see him from like 500 feet away," said driver Michelle Chen. "He was kind of... hunching. Behind this little mailbox shaped like a barn. His entire head and shoulders were visible. It was honestly kind of endearing."
Officer Thompson defended his position choice, stating that the mailbox had "worked fine in training" and that the sun was "in a weird spot today."
"Hiding isn't really the point anyway," Thompson explained, while visibly hiding behind a fire hydrant. "It's about traffic safety. The visibility is actually a feature, not a bug. It encourages people to slow down."
When asked why he was crouching, Thompson stated he was "just stretching" and that this interview was over.
Local speeds in the area have decreased by 0%.
