I'm not saying all cops will be out of a job, but we will see a lot less traffic cops, because cities will no longer be able to cover hiring them in their budgets. If you go to states like FL & Texas for example, both states with out a state income tax, you see an enormous amount of cops.
The reason is they are used as forced taxation by way of citation.. (yea I coined that term (i think) so I'm using it again) When you have that many cops they "find" crimes which in turn raises the crime rate of the areas meaning it's justified to have so many cops. It's a self feeding circle but soon these states like FL & TX won't have the ability to cover these excess cops in their budgets because citation writing will be largely eliminated by self driving cars.
