Is this really true? I thought quotas were illegal.
What makes a cop decide to sit hiding by the side of a
highway waiting for speeders, as opposed to driving
the local streets and give out some littering tickets,
or broken brake light tickets.
I agree with the "revenue" argument for tickets, but
just as much revenue can be generated for all of the
cigarettes being tossed out the windows of cars.
My assumption was, the officer chose to do the speed
trap because it was less work for him/her to write
their "quota" of tickets.
