Yes, the city is a lot worse for crime, totally agree. Maybe I didn't explain it right but as far as traffic stops by LEO's, less happens in the city as far as getting hurt during a traffic stop (maybe because there's a lot more people around) as on the highway where the real felons (drug runners etc.) think they can get away because of the vast highway expanse and less witnesses.
But then again, we probably all saw that guy (paralyzed for life) being run down in the middle of downtown and the car sped away down a side street and all the pedestrians just standing around and not doing anything, didn't even get a description of the car. Think it was downtown Boston or somewhere like that. So having a lot of witnesses around doesn't always mean someone will say they saw what happened.
