In 2023, Officer Lester Lee Thomas was involved in a legal case concerning a traffic stop on I-65. He allegedly walked into the left inside lane to stop a second speeder, potentially violating pedestrian statutes (§ 32-5A-215) by not yielding the right-of-way to vehicles. The court examined whether his actions fell within exceptions to State-agent immunity. The case highlighted concerns about adherence to traffic laws and the safety protocols followed during traffic stops.
