Ok, so by not writing tickets, they are causing the towns revenue to be down, the town is attempting to keep the tax rates low but due to decreased revenue they are going to have to raise the taxes, and since these officers are members of the community, will be forking additional monies from their paychecks for taxes. So in escence, they are paying for the tickets themselves.

I love it when articles like these pop out which clearly admit that tickets serve more the purpose of generating revenue than to enforce the law.

Good thing to see that you and I see the same thing on this. Freepers never fail to amaze me at how canny we can be. Nor do Freepers fail me at how common we all think.
