Great work, pay up.

with pleasure - I am happy to pay for an active police presence that notices that someone swerving all over the place at the speed limit because they are texting is way more dangerous than someone who is 6 kays over the limit.

You want to charge people who really are not driving dangerously. Even if it is "voluntary" it is moronic.

Take a drive and see how much revenue a HWP officer could generate just catching people REALLY driving dangerously under the limit. I would see 10 people being distracted by their phone in my 20 minute drive to work each day.

It doesn't take Einstein to work out that more police on the road doesn't cost money, it just doesn't make as much..
