Highlights
In their eyes, had been pretty much discredited. It reduced the mobility of the police, who had difficulty responding to citizen calls for service, and it weakened headquarters control over patrol officers
Many police officers disliked foot patrol, but for different reasons: it was hard work, it kept them outside on cold, rainy nights, and it reduced their chances for making a "good pinch." In some departments, assigning officers to foot patrol had been used as a form of punishment
Academic experts on policing doubted that foot patrol would have any impact on crime rates; it was, in the opinion of most, little more than a sop to public opinion
Summary
As part of that program, the state provided money to help cities take police officers out of their patrol cars and assign them to walking beats. What foot-patrol officers did was to elevate, to the extent they could, the level of public order in these neighborhoods.
