CPD unveils first draft of new policy on traffic stops – Chicago Tribune/Yahoo

For its part, CPD’s draft policy states, “The Department acknowledges that lawful Pretextual Traffic Stops can be perceived by some members of the community as negative, biased, or unlawful. Therefore, any such use of lawful Pretextual Traffic Stops as a law enforcement or crime prevention strategy must strike a balance between identifying those engaged in criminal conduct and the community’s sense of fairness.”

Very interesting data on Second City Cop’s site detailing how stops are down, written citations are down and 75% of searches made of vehicles result in contraband being discovered.
