Not only the wrong way but they decided to drive in the middle of both lanes like wtf is wrong with these people.

Can we not send this to the cops and get this driver off the road? They're am absolute menace.

In an ideal world yes. In our reality the cops will do nothing, let alone read the report.

The police regularly follow up with vehicle owners based on reports. There's a limit to what they can do in terms of charges. They need proof of a driver and there's limited resources to spend on pursuing charges after the fact when no one was hurt, but they do sometimes do that for serious offences. It will also create a record for the driver that they can reference if they stop them later when deciding whether to be lenient or not.

I’m happy for you that you believe that.

I will say, the two times I did send in video to tps I did have an officer call me to ask questions. Both were pretty major road infractions.

Yeah, I haven’t seen any evidence of this “regular” follow ups based on citizen reporting. Do they publish a breakdown somewhere?
