How should I handle this?

So I live on a main road that has a lot of traffic, and due to that there is a sheriff that uses it as a speed trap. The speed limit is 25 and he will pull people over for going 30. But this is the problem, say someone goes by at 30, this guy waits til the "speeder" gets out of range just enough for him to pull out of his hiding spot and floor it. I have a buddy that has a radar gun and we caught the sheriff going from speeds 60 to 90 mph to catch the "speeders" when in reality he is the most dangerous person on the road. I'm getting sick of him blasting by to catch someone going 5 to 15 mph over the limit while he is going at times he is going 65 over. Now I have some of this recorded and have gone and asked people that have been pulled over in front of my house to see their ticket to record how much over the speed limit he pulled them over for.

Now what do I do with this info If i go to the cops they wont do a thing because he is one. I called the town hall and they said they couldnt do any thing. How should i handle this to stop this guy from driving like a mad man before he hits someone going 90?

You really can't do anything cause he's a cop. I guess you could call the cops on the sheriff but that probably won't go too well.

talk to the cop personally and tell him you don't appreciate the danger he brings to your neighborhood and go fight some real crime.

Set up a meeting with the sheirff or whoevers in charge at the police station and tell him what you just told us. Cops aren't bad people and I'm sure any sane person would understand that going 90 on those roads is dangerous as shit. He will probably talk to the officer in wuestion and he will slow it down.

No way this guy is your typical if you say anything to me I will make your life suck kind of cop. My neighbor said something now he is always in front of his house, he pulls people over in his drive way, and he  pulled him over soon as he is out of his drive way when he was going to get his car registered because it was one day over and gave him a ticket.

make a fake call to the police about a crime at your home, when the sheriff arrives, drug him then pee in his butt

I retract my last statement. This idea is far superior to mine.

put that shit on youtube and then e-mail the video, as an anonymous and concerned citizen, to your local police department(as high up as you can go).

Your first problem is that you are viewing the speed enforcement as a safety measure while it is nothing more than a revenue stream. Of course the town is not going to do anything; the cop is making the town a shit ton of revenue.

Basically, you have little chance at doing anything meaningful to change this behavior.

Keep speeding past him until he crashes into someone and I bet someone will notice

so you know where his spot is, all you need is to wait until he catches someone speeding, then while he is pulling out of his spot and hauling ass, you pop out in front of his car. BOOM!

The only logical means of bringing the situation to an end is to get him to hit something or someone doing double the speed limit in a residential neighborhood in pursuit of a misdemeanor traffic violation. that shit would blow up and the public outrage would get him out of there. That's your framework, now work backwards from there with a full plan. post results pls.

Is his hiding spot on an actual road, or is it a dirt pull-out or some such? If it isn't on the true road, this opens up all kinds of possibilities.

bro, idc how badass this cop is if you go and talk to him reasonably like a man he will listen and take it into consideration. Let him know that you appreciate what he does but not how goes about it and he brings danger into your neighborhood.

If it truly bothers you, let him know and he'lll listen.... he shouldn't be going that fast ina 25 anyway
