We’ve all wondered…
When we’re waiting in our driver’s seats and glancing in the side mirror at the officer strolling up with notepad in hand, we’ve all had these thoughts: “Does this officer have a quota to meet? Are they just trying to get more money out of me?”
The answer to these questions is a dry “yes.” Of course law enforcement will enforce the law, but there is also a financial component to it. That money goes somewhere, and somewhere is into local government. So what happens when local governments find themselves short on money? Suddenly, going 5 mph over the speed limit in a construction zone gets a lot more risky.
