I mean in many (most?) states travelling in the left lane is a moving violation

Using it to fish for other violations is where it crosses into the fuzzy and sometimes outright illegal

The counter to this is demand that they write you the ticket for the moving violation, don't answer any questions other than providing the legally required license, registration, and insurance, and move on

If they don't have evidence of a crime, they can't detain you forever on the roadside

		You replied to my comment acknowledging that stopping her may be wrong but doesnt constitute a dragnet.

Do you own stock in Flock or Axon? I don't believe you are actually asking this is good faith.

Flock is a dragnet. It allows police to coordinate around apprehending suspects, which is the definition of dragnet, if you look at any dictionary.

Flock isn't publicly traded. How could I own stock in it?

>I don't believe you are actually asking this is good faith.

Well assume it, those are the rules.

Apprehending suspects is most certainly not the definition of a dragnet. This is precisely my point. Apprehending people indiscriminately is the definition of a dragnet. Stopping a specific person for something that isnt a crime may not be legal but its not a dragnet.

Not all stock is publicly traded. I own stock that you can't buy on the exchange. It's quite common actually.

		15.4% of families have private equity. Not unheard of but not what I would call quite common https://www.sec.gov/files/exploring-accredited-investors-jun...

You could be a private investor, an employee, etc. Just because a company is publicly traded doesn't mean you can't be financially invested with the success of a company.

Could be, am not.

Do you understand why flock is not a dragnet now?

		No, you have done absolutely nothing to help me understand your perspective. You have only disagreed.
