Should the law be used to extract money from citizens?

The 2007 report form the Federal Reserve Bank OF ST. Louis.( Research Division) yields startling insight to the actual issuing of traffic citations. The the RPD, NHP and Washoe Sheriff gain the revenues form the traffic tickets they issue. They are incentivised to issue citations independent of any public safety motives. This simply must stop. Gibbions says he will not raise taxes…….? well the money needs to come from somewhere. How about inundating the streets and highways with revenue collectors……I mean Police. question is, how many police do you need combing the streets at one time1,10,50 a full battalion? where do they draw the line? Or if they need 20 million dollars this month can they simply take it from the citizens. There is no check and balance for this behavior of law.

Require that any posted speed limit that differs from the standard speed limit for a given type of road or highway be supported by a legitimate traffic engineering study that determines the 85th percentile speed of free flowing unimpeded traffic.
Establish a limit on the percent of local revenues that any community can generate through traffic fines. Any local unit of government that is generating more than 10% to 20% of its total revenue from fines is abusing traffic enforcement for revenue enhancement purposes.
Require that a high percentage (75 %) of all traffic fines and related costs be transferred to an unrelated state fund, e.g. public education, emergency relief, or public library aids.
Prohibit the use of electronic speed measurement devices to enforce speed limits that have not been determined through the use of an official traffic engineering study.
Require specific and proper training for any person using electronic devices for speed enforcement purposes.
Provide that any motorist charged with a traffic violation has the automatic right for a change of venue to a court of record (from a local administrative or municipal court).
Prohibit the use of electronic speed measurement devices to clock vehicles within 100 yards of a speed limit sign that reduces the speed limit.
