Don't know why OP dropped an important regional distinction.. not a problem in Honduras, for example. Or Washington state
On the other hand, such pervasive and ever present law enforcement is oppressive. If the majority of your citizens are breaking a law, then your citizenship clearly thinks the law is unnecessary. We give road laws a pass because safety is quite provable through studies and we listen to our researchers, but if we scaled this out to all crimes (like jaywalking) I think you would see just about everyone is a criminal eventually.
Which law do you think the majority of the citizenship here is breaking?
It's actually very simple. Put a cop by the sidewalk, have them stop people and issue a fine. You'd be making several grand every day. I would do it myself, but I am not authorized to stop people and take their money. There is no need for cameras when the violations are so blatantly obvious and recurring.
