Reply to comment by Killbot_Wants_Hug in Rammed at a four-way stop. Is this a thing now? by CommonGreatHornedOwl

Bump and jacks, yes! I was trying to remember what they were called, I remembered bump and something. Yeah, they were very common in St. Louis a couple decades ago. I'm glad they got nipped in the bud here. I wish other crimes would be too.

Nipped in the bud might be a bit of an overstatement. More like it was happening for 2ish years and in the good neighborhoods as well so the police finally put together a task force and actually worked on the problem.
