(WXYZ) â The group is called Southeast Michigan Pull Over Prevention, and behind the effort are community members on a mission to pump the brakes when it comes to unnecessary police interactions. What we are doing is minimizing or hopefully eliminating police encounters, unnecessary ones, by performing simple repairs to people s cars . headlights, brake lights, tail lights, stuff that the motor vehicle code allows the police to pull people over for, but which may be cost prohibitive to to people, said Shane Mall, Pull Over Prevention volunteer.
