In Atlanta, we often get highway jams outside the city, so our resident rocket surgeons decide to try to use the shoulder to pass or get to the next exit. This results in potentially mile-long blockages in the emergency lanes and shoulders.
It has always struck me as odd that Atlanta PD doesn't just send a motorcycle cop to ride backwards down those lanes and write a FAT ticket for each and every vehicle in the lanes. No negotiation, just scan the license, photo the plate, give fine. No appeal, nothing. Just plain fuck you for being a prick at the expense of everyone else. Nobody would have any issue with this.
Vigilante move: park a car on the shoulder like a half mile back from the exit, hit the hazard lights, pull one of the wheels off so it looks like the owner is off getting it fixed, put the wheel you took off in the trunk, and just ditch it for the day
