My problem is that we pay considerable taxes for law enforcement and next to nothing is done to correct the many problems. I live along a rural road with a 45 mph speed limit and almost everyone is driving at interstate speeds. Almost every Harley has an open exhaust, and that is just a joke for the police department. That is just two examples of the many problems, but my point is that if laws mean nothing, fire those that ignore the problem and stop wasting the money.
Guess it just goes to show you can't please everyone. Half the population feels that the highway patrol isn't doing enough, and the other half think their sole purpose is to generate revenue (i.e. write tickets for violations).
If the highway patrol's sole purpose were to generate revenue, you would NEVER see a patrol car parked in a median "taking pictures." They would constantly be on the shoulder, lights flashing, writing a ticket. Yet, you hardly ever see a patrol car with someone pulled over. 99% of the time they're lurking along at just over the speed limit in the left lane, or sitting in the median.
