you also have to remember that there are city, county, and state officers....so anywhere at any given time there should be an officer ready to respond to anything within minutes

Yeah I know that but from my understanding the officer doesnt need a speed detection device in order to issue a ticket for speed or issue a traffic ticket.So I believe they're gonna be pushing more tickets so the can win stuff.Also as far as reporting to stuff, the area I live in they seem to take a long time to get to the scene(non urgent stuff).Example: A young lady had ran into the rear of the car.It took the officer a good 45min to get there. This has happen many time(officer taking for ever to get there).Now Im not saying there is nothing wrong with trying to win stuff.It just that it usually takes away from other things.
