By Jonah Chester WPR/Wisconsin Watch Tristain Thomas remembers seeing plenty of reckless driving while living along Milwaukee's West Fond du Lac Avenue during his childhood. A police officer would park just blocks away from Thomas' home in the Grasslyn Manor neighborhood to catch drivers barreling down the four-lane state highway. 'He would sit there for eight to 10 hours every day, pulling people over constantly, because they're just flying down the street with no regard for anyone else,' Thomas, 40, recalled.
