Isn't that a fairly damning report on the integrity of cops and equal enforcement of the law? Might not such a system of "total discretion" lead to over enforcement in one community and under-enforcement in another based on some factor other than the speed of the car? And wouldn't it be ironic if the community subject to letter of the law enforcement were to point out that discrepancy in policing and be attacked for doing so by the people who have been receiving BPA get out of jail free cards? At least you said snippy not uppity.
the pba is a union not a charity
