Sound Off: License stickers

You won't be very hard pressed to see someone rocking a color other than yellow or orange. They're everywhere. Whether or not they have paid their taxes is another question entirely but I would assume people are not that stupid not to put their new stickers on once they've paid annual taxes.

Drivers also get away with not having any working brake lights. Not one, but all three out. If they've gotten away with it that long for all of them to go out, clearly the LPD doesn't have any sort of focus on traffic enforcement.

Sound Off: Reporting texters

Oh yeah, must only be young people and college students..

And let's all be real here. You can get away with speeding and running red lights pretty much everywhere in Lawrence. Why? Because there's hardly ever any real traffic enforcement in this town. Calling in someone that is texting while driving will probably illicit a roll-your-eyes approach by the dispatcher.

Lawrence officer who died in auto accident had blood-alcohol level three times legal limit

Clearly this story can't change what happened. It's still terrible for the family and all that cared for him, but it's still newsworthy. He was a public servant. As a public servant you are held to a higher standard, especially as a law enforcement officer. On or off-duty events like these will always be publicized because the public has the right to know. We are the ones paying their salary. It's the same way for politicians, heads of local government, and even the lowliest private in the Army. Once you are elected or sign-up for the position, your life is transparent publicly and privately.
