Traffic crashes could soon be investigated by civilians in North Carolina

Looks like they're looking for creative ways to get around the problem of hiring enough cops... It kind of makes sense, I guess?

I get it...

A certain part of me likes the idea of serving the public. However I've never needed a cop's help to deal with a traffic accident before. Typically the person who fucked up owns up to it and we work it out like the adults we are.

Eh, I got hit+ran in cary 16 years ago, it was nice to have the report, but the insurance did the work.

This is a great idea - taking down an official report isn't something that requires a gun.

yea, if there's no serious injury then I completely agree.

... not calling these "humorous injuries"...
