yet with all this nice new tech they can't find ONE model of body cam to aid public confidence in the force...
That's because there aren't enough models of bodycams that can be switched off by the officer, or have so little storage that they won't last for half a shift.
They are better off with a roadside sobriety test, if you ask me.
Cocaine, alcohol, opioids and meth are all water soluble, and are readily excreted in urine. Cannabinoids, on the other hand, are lipophilic, and hang around in fat tissue for quite some time. So all the saliva test is going to do is tell you whether the person being tested has been exposed to cannabinoids in the last week or so.

We're better off with self-driving cars.
