It starts with quotas. Quotas need to go.

Imo, law enforcement should be reactive, not actively out there seeking convictions. If you're told you have to come up with X number of tickets, convictions, drug bust, whatever, you're gonna figure out a way to find them, and it might not always be legit.

The thing is I don't mind traffic enforcement but it's like literally all they do is worry about people speeding on the highway which is a huge who cares. Shouldn't be any speed limits on them anyway.

I would rather have them post up near traffic lights and ban people running reds which happens all the time in Vegas. But they never do. Only just speeding.

Traffic enforcement is fine. It's the quotas that need to go. Imagine if everybody just stopped speeding and running reds. That cop would STILL be required to come up with a way to fill that quota or be reprimanded.

Change traffic infractions to points without fines, and change it so court costs are regulated so it's not $500 just to see justice, and you'll see this shit change.
