I would not be surprised if small town law enforcement pushed their officers to write more tickets to bring in more money for their departments.

FYI, we have NEVER been told "we need more money. Go write more tickets."
=this is from a police officer.

On the other hand, tickets can't be written if you aren't doing anything wrong, at least thats my understanding of the system

If you weren't told, was it written on a post-it and left on your desk then?
hope I don't get banned for that one
