Cars' future will curb need for cops

The coming of autonomous cars will lead to lesser needs for police personnel and equipment. The cars will obey speed limits, stop signs, red lights, etc.

Accidents will be greatly reduced as the self-driven cars are much safer. This will particularly become so when all cars communicate with each other to avoid collisions.

I suggest that government officials prepare for this when planning future police and sheriff department needs.
