In response to the shooting and death of Daunte Wright, reportedly accidentally, by a Brooklyn Center police officer, the Minneapolis city council is moving forward with a plan to create an unarmed Traffic Safety Division to enforce traffic laws rather than real police officers:

From Fox News:
In the wake of the fatal police shooting of Daunte Wright during a traffic stop outside Minneapolis last week, city officials have approved a move toward unarmed traffic enforcers.
Minneapolis City Council voted unanimously on Friday for the development of a new Traffic Safety Division, which would be separate from the Minneapolis Police Department, FOX9 Minneapolis reported.
What could go wrong?
This likely does not end wellhttps://t.co/PriloJ1IHk

They don't follow instructions from a fucking cop with a gun, what the fuck is going to happen when a rent a cop pulls their ass over? Be better off doing away with traffic laws and warrants https://t.co/ywNZeyfuBh

Or is this another job for social workers?
Probably best to put unarmed social workers in charge of this task 🤦♀️ Minneapolis city council moves toward unarmed traffic enforcers after Daunte Wright shooting https://t.co/3ADsjQ6SVt #FoxNews
