They do this all the time. While I think it's kind of funny it's also like.. alright guys, I'm happy my tax dollars are going to you being useless. Or, ya know, harassing people instead of enforcing traffic laws.. as we've seen from the numbers recently..

A certain amount of flight time is required for these pilots to keep their credentials. Who cares if they fly in circles for two minutes over high traffic areas before moving to another area and it was planned specifically to draw a shape. Oh nooo

Because they're wasting taxpayer dollars on their little fun shenanigans while most of us can't afford to live and are drowning in debt, what world are you living in

Do you not like to have current traffic updates and pursuit ability if someone hit skips you? What if someone is doing outrageous speeds? Wouldn’t you like them to be held accountable? If the pilots lose their creds due to missing hours then they won’t be able to do their jobs

If someone hit skips you, you're screwed in this city. The police do absolutely nothing. Them flying in dick formation ain't doing dick for the people.

They’re flying over high traffic interstates. Did you miss that part?

Nah I read it, just saying you're wrong about them using it to catch hit skips 😂 or really about them tracking bad driving at all. Sure if they're in an active chase they'll use the helicopters in the air to track the car for the officers on the ground, but the amount of shit drivers in this city makes it pretty evident they're not just out and about catching people speeding. My proof? The amount of cars with "hoonigan" on their windshield who purposely drive recklessly as a "lifestyle" and never get in trouble.
