I'm a former police officer. If you have not heard, I have written a book called, "Cop Out" ( isbn# 0-595-42543-7). It's a true story about my life as a former police officer. My book tells it as I saw it. "Cop Out" speaks about a former police officer, who later became a fugitive from law enforcement for 22 years. My life as a fugitive is not a proud event in my life, but it was my life. In my previous article, you would have learned how to avoid traffic tickets when stopped by the police. If any of the readers wondered why I revealed so much information about how police officers operate, read my book.

To those of you who are not privy to my book ( available through amazon, yahoo and and through ordering at barnes&noble ) here is a brief note. I was a rogue police officer. I was a young arrogant cop, seeking power instead of fairness. I am ashamed that I dishonored the trust placed in my hands. But nevertheless, I must make sure that other rogue cops do not violate the citizens as I had done. Call it my gift to the world. Now to the subject at hand. Are there quotas? In all major cities, "No." The reason is that a police officers' salary is paid by that city's tax base. That major city collects taxes from so many sources, all city employees are paid. If it's a city with under 25,000 people, that is a different story.

In small cities, the tax base is not large. Therefore, there is an unwritten understanding with the chief of police and the city council to increase revenue to the city through traffic tickets and fines. At this point, unlike a large city, the police chief is placed under greater pressure to bring in funds. The chief becomes an instrument of politicians. The chief may not even realize that he is being used. So therefore, as you travel through major cities, don't worry. But if you travel through a small city or municipality, slow down. Besides, the police officers in these cities have nothing to do but look for out of town drivers. In major cities, they have many more problems to tend to. Slow down, and arrive home safely!
