Lost Cause Highway?

So, remember when I told you all about that new sting operation where cops dress as regular folk and try to catch people who don’t yield to pedestrians? Well, apparently–along with more than 100 warnings– the CPD doled out a healthy dose of confusion. Check out these selections from the Tribune.
 
“James Fugate of the South Side was one of the drivers stopped by police. He held a warning handout, looking perplexed.
 
‘I saw him come out, but he stood right in front of the sidewalk,’ Fugate, 32, said.
 
The decoy would have had to roam a little further into the street for Fugate to realize he was trying to cross, he added.”

 
“‘I saw him, but to be honest, I thought maybe he was drunk or something,’ said Elisa Chessen, 39, of Skokie, who also received a warning.”
 
Awesome.
