O that’s way to low, 85% minimum or more. Like majority of charities.

The Citizens on Patrol for Speeders will start ticketing all vehicles that exceed 20 miles per hour. The first ticket will be 25$ and second and forward will be 75$. The Cops will work off a 30% commission rate, use their own golf cars, be equipped with radar guns, sirens, and use their own phone to capture pictures. The excess funds will be used to cover equipment costs, uniforms, food banks, and psychological evaluations for repeat offenders. If your interested in becoming part of COPS please call 1-800-468-9255 on Tuesdays from 10-2. Thank You!
This has to be an April Fools joke!! (I hope)

Oh, yeah, gonna get real interesting. I can just see the little clipboard lady pulling over some big angry guy and writing him a ticket for 21mph on the MMP.
This is just what we need here, self important , self appointed brown shirts that want to have authority over others. They are not POLICE and if I am approached by them they will be told to **** off. If they attempt to ID me they will fail, and lastly if they try to detain me they will face civil charges for wrongful arrest and kidnapping! Traffic laws can only be enforced by legally appointed law enforcement personnel. This is a terrible idea that will have profound negative effects on the quality of life here in TV.
