Speeding tickets are an absolute "cash cow" for police departments, local & state governments and the courts. And if you think police departments spend all that money on expensive speed radars and lasers just to keep drivers "safe."

Why else would officers have quotas for how many tickets they have to write everyday?”Why are so many police departments constantly spending more and more money to increase the size of their traffic units in a down economy like ours?
