I just think you have state borders and there needs to be a safer general approach that the public are also made aware of when traveling.

If those dudes by law had to have their their hands out of the windows in view of the camera the cops couldnt have an excuse to shoot them could they? Its an obvious win /win situation and it is simple.

You dont comply you know theres a gun pointed at your head = level two.

I think people would find that invasive and/or oppressive though, and rightfully so. The vast majority of police stops are for simple traffic violations so it would be overkill in those situations. And then you'd have people not putting their hands out the window for whatever reason (forgot, deaf, whatever) and getting roughed up by police on those grounds. People would be pissed.

Personally I don't think there are enough murderous cops out there to try to overhaul the system. Even in assuming there are cops out there just itching to kill somebody, they have to know that when they pull the trigger on someone, even if they know they will be cleared by the courts and won't face legal repercussions, their lives are never going to be the same. They are most likely going to be subject to national scrutiny, have their picture and name blasted all over global television and the internet, and have people making death threats/harassing them and their families. It's highly undesirable for any cop to shoot someone I would think. Cops don't want to do it, don't give them a reason to IMO.
