Waldo Police Department under investigation for ticket quotas

Quote:Billboards. They don't make it a secret that they ticket speeders and enforce speed laws strictly. They tell you plain as day before you get to their town. If they want to take action on the quotas, fine. However, 99.9% of the people ticketed there were in fact speeding. If you sat down there for a day, you would see that people are oblivious to those signs. People have become exponentially more stupid when it comes to driving these days, and you see it everywhere, even in well marked speed traps.


People can whine all they want. Don't want a speeding ticket, don't speed. It's that simple.
We aren't talking about speeding everywhere. We are talking about a specific town that is doing it illegally. A town set up and funded by speeding tickets. Are you all really okay with that? Again, the point of speeding is to protect not to serve as funding for a town and set up solely for that purpose. I'm not complaining about speeding in general and tickets given, I'm speaking about Waldo and what they are doing is illegal. If you are for laws that are pointless, that don't protect in which they are intended and just set up to fund politicians than why don't we just make a law that it is illegal to wear red shirts. I mean, if they make it known that red shirts are illegal to wear than no one should complain right?


And to be clear, this didn't come out because people complained. This came out because 5 police officers did not think it was right. They complained, you know, the ones pulling people over. Are we saying they shouldn't have complained?
