It's too difficult I guess. Police just want to sit at speed traps and give tickets for speeding, and ignore all other traffic infractions, because speeding is the easiest to enforce.
- cgriswald 7y agoYou also have to have the courts on board. No point in ticketing if the courts just throw everything out.
- magduf 7y agoWell yeah, but why would the courts not be on board? Generally, traffic courts in this country automatically side with the cops unless you have a really, really good reason why the cop was wrong (or if the cop doesn't show up for the hearing). Traffic tickets are big money-makers for municipalities, so it's in their best interest to make it very hard for people to get out of them.
- cgriswald 7y agoGood question, but that has happened here enough that the cops don’t enforce certain things.
