I'm interested in the idea that a memorial for a policeman shot and killed during a traffic stop in 1978 would remind speeding drivers to slow down [quotes from attached article]. Surely they would just remind people not to shoot and kill policemen?

I have to say I hate the tattered remains of flowers and faded notes tied to lamp-posts here. As I don't drive at the moment (and have never knowingly broken the speed limit) it didn't occur to me that it might slow other people down. Perhaps it's worth it then - I'd prefer then to keep their grief private though.
