Police car serpentine on the freeway?
This might be a strange question, but a few times when I've been driving on the freeway in L.A. I've noticed a police car doing a serpentine across all the lanes, deliberately slowing or even stopping traffic.
Is this to slow traffic down because there is an accident ahead? A police chase? Something else, perhaps? Just wondering!

its called a traffic break,
its done to remove
debris or even stalled car that stalled on the center divider
by creating a traffic break -it gives time for the officer
(or cal trans) to remove what ever was in the roadway
just remember not to pass the patrol cars that are conducting the traffic break -else you are libel to get a ticket!
