There are posters on this forum who actually believe that LEOs are motivated by public safety instead of revenue.
They need to sit in our traffic court and listen to the judge hand out kudos to the traffic patrolman who brings in a big sheaf of tickets.
IMO, the JBT's are one of the biggest threats to our society. Their lawmaking accomplices have put walls around everything we do, so they can snag the unwary, and levy a fine, or incarcerate you...
What jacks my jaws, these days, about too many LEO's, is that they sit by the side of the road, with lights flashing, to warn of construction zones, while collecting overtime pay. But, try and get a call answered, except in an emergency (even then, there is wasted time involved...)! I was searching, but can't find, the posting about how many LEO's are making in excess of $100k annually...
Why are they traffic guards, now???
I may not care if you personally get home every night, but I'd rather not have to help find whats left of you after a crash. I only wish I got a cut of the revenue too, but that goes straight to your local government's slush fund.
