Driving in this Economy July 22, 2009
Now that we are not making as much money thanks to unemployment rates increasing and income cuts, we are not paying as many taxes. As we pay less taxes there is less money funding cities and their respective employees. Realizing this, it would make sense these cities would encourage other ways to receive funding.
One of these ways could be through traffic violation tickets. Think about it, police officers have a quota of tickets they have to give out each month. Well imagine if they rocked that quota and brought in a ton of money. It makes sense for the temptation to be there.
Because they can make more money by issuing more speeding tickets we need to be cautious on the road. They’re probably less inclined to let us talk our way out of tickets so take great care to avoid getting pulled over.
