Speed Limit Enforcement
End of the month and cops have to meet their quota. Or do they? I saw four different speed traps today, and passed several patrol cars. I saw one put on his lights after I went by, but he pulled over the car behind me. What luck. I was doing the speed limit when I passed this sheriff:

Coming up to the end of the fiscal year too. Not sure if cops operate on that though.

A buddy of mine is a Baltimore Patrolman...They dont have a quota, but they highly recommend you met a certain number of tickets per month.
|
My roommate is a cop, no quota. He says that is mostly a myth.
|
The best man at my wedding is a cop. He says that the quota system is a myth, but if they dont issue a certain number of tickets per person, per shift, per department it gets noted that they are not working at their full potential on their annual reports
|
They have quotas, they are just unofficial just like you said derf and if you don't meet the unofficial quotas, then you get in trouble. It's all so they can say they don't have quotas, but really have quotas.

It's like any other job, kiddies. How else do they measure "department effectiveness?" The number of hugs received?
