Yet nowhere are we more likely to encounter the long arm of the law than in our cars. Sarah Seo reveals how the rise of the automobile led us to accept8213and expect8213pervasive police power, a radical transformation with far-reaching consequences.Before the twentieth century, most Americans rarely came into contact with police officers. But in a society dependent on cars, everyone8213law-breaking and law-abiding alike8213is subject to discretionary policing. Seo challenges prevailing interpretations of the Warren Court8217s due process revolution and argues that the Supreme Court8217s efforts to protect Americans did more to accommodate than limit police intervention. Policing the Open Road shows how the new procedures sanctioned discrimination by officers, and ultimately undermined the nation8217s commitment to equal protection before the law.8220With insights ranging from the joy of the open road to the indignities8213and worse8213of 8216driving while black,8217 Sarah Seo makes the case that the 8216law of the car8217 has eroded our rights to privacy and equal justice8230Absorbing and so essential.82218213Paul Butler, author of Chokehold8220A fascinating examination of how the automobile reconfigured American life, not just in terms of suburbanization and infrastructure but with regard to deeply ingrained notions of freedom and personal identity.82218213Hua Hsu, New Yorker<br>
