I don't blame them. Part of speed enforcement is safety and part is
revenue. All a municipality has to do is buy a radar or laser device
and rake in the dough.
It’s a shame that both speeding and traffic violations are needed to get revenue. It does put pressure on officers at certain times to charge people they KNOW didn’t do anything wrong. I’ve had it happen to me a few times where you could tell the officer really didn’t want to give a ticket but had to because of a quota. They’ll say things like “Call the station, I’ll make sure you don’t get any points for this on your license”.
Meanwhile, they know that about 99% of the people will simply pay the ticket. And, even if the person disputes the ticket, the police seem to win about 99.5% of the arguments in Jersey Shore courts.
I wonder just how many tickets would be handed out each month if REVENUE wasn’t a factor... __._,_.___
