Can police enforce traffic laws while still acting in a procedural way ? Giving folks a voice, explaining the process, being transparent, showing dignity, respect and being fair.  Riley County sought this out.

Inspired by the Queensland Procedural Justice experiment where some in the random breath testing roadblocks were provided up to 97 seconds to explain the process while the control or business as usual were 25 seconds. Not surprising, the experiment groups were seen in a much more positive light.
