But here's an idea...I'll bet there are quite a few LEOs living in TV. Maybe some of them might be interested in getting back into the game as contracted (not employed) traffic cops. Their entire job would be to patrol TV for speeders, left-lane lolligaggers, stop light/sign runners, etc. etc. But instead of paying them a wage, they get a portion of all the fines levied against the people they catch breaking the traffic laws.

Joe Taxpayer doesn't get stuck with the bill for anything, we get better traffic control and the regular officers get freed up for other police work. Win-win.
