Sure, if I was involved in an auto accident, I wouldn't complain about three officers coming to the scene. My complaint is where it takes a while for the police to respond to the scene.

No victim in his/her right mind would complain about too many LEO's responding. However, my point is that the resources could have been used else where to enforce laws or respond to other issues.
Law Enforcement is a job where someone will be unhappy with EVERY single decision you make.
(Ticketed party unhappy, thinks other party should have been ticketed. Nobody ticketed, caller unhappy, thinks ticket deserved. Accident scene, citation for violation to one party, they think other party was more at fault. etc)

Also, as far as "Better used other where", do you have a crystal ball? Do you have information that these Officers were aware of another situation and ignored it? If not, there was nothing else, just speculation (and it falls mighty close to "thinly veiled LEO bashing").

If Police "over respond", nothing happens, nobody gets hurt. If they "under respond" there's potential for bad things to happen.
