So, what did they do the rest of the day? Did they stop 500 drivers and just gave them verbal warnings? Or did they sleep in their police cars? Maybe just having them write a short report on their daily activities would change they way they do their jobs.

Maybe they're creating stuff to sell on Etsy or writing FOSS like they would be in the UBI world?

There are many professions where you don’t know that you have too many, but you know when you have too few. I suspect police are one of these.
