From the enforcement side, I support the original post 100%. I've had my patrol unit rear ended twice (the last time totalled the car) in ten years. Luckly I wasn't in the car in either event.
In 2009, 6 officers lost their lives by being struck by cars (accidental)...god only knows how many others were injured. The reason we do the "traps" for this law is because when we're working an incident, we can't break away from the scene to give an idiot a ticket. The "traps" let people know the law exsists and it's enforced, so when we are working on the side of the road, people yield.
