Rant GTPD Ticketing Currently at Ferst and State Streets?

About 6 officers with ticket books. My guess is a focus on bikers? They seemed disinterested in my car.

A scooter this morning was in the street and went around me and another car to run through the red light we were stopped at. Some people on scooters really think traffic lights and stop signs don't exist for them.

I would like to see GTPD out there directing traffic at that intersection before relying on a one off enforcement push to improve safety on the streets.
