ticket quotas

Police agencies say they do it, but people complain about them all the time.

The week started off with a blend of light, fun and a bit of seriousness. We discussed the ban on food trucks in Seaside Park, teaching distracted driving, and police officer’s subject to ‘grace’ on ticket quotas.

Officers said their own sense of safety and fairness played a part in determining how fast they'd allow drivers could go.

Ticket quotas aren’t legal in New Jersey, but a police union says they're happening through discipline of officers. Lawmakers may change rules for evaluations.

Do ticket quotas exist within New Jersey police departments? Are speed traps a practice of the past? We went after these and other cop-related debates to find the truth.

Interesting conversation I had last night about ticket quotas. According to some callers, they exist – others claim they don’t. Apparently they must - or else Assemblyman Declan O’Scanlon would not have proposed new legislation banning them...

A bill to ban ticket quotas in New Jersey is scheduled to be introduced next week.
