Hi Stanley, quick question, what microphone do you use to record the voice overs?

[TVman1981]

@PowerstrokeRacing24 I have no Idea its in a little room......

[workingclasssociety]

good job stanley, you are riding on the coat tails of the working class. You are a sell out

[TVman1981]

@workingclasssociety Why because I told the truth? Should I allow people to be misinformed?

[TVman1981]

@workingclasssociety WOW and it only took me 5 years to reach sellout status!!! Thank you!

@rich0319726

not necessarily, I know some officers that have never given any kinds of tickets in their whole career. (Some of them span 30+ years)

[daniel6262021]

That last statement is a total lie, I personally know CHP officers and there are quotas it's just not talked about, and this guy people behaving badly you need to get out more often and not worry about petty violations

@mrbear24 If that's true then they were never traffic cops.

[harleyxxfabco]

This is just more of the Nanny state programming us to give up our rights and freedoms. Stanley is just a puppet supporting the American Gestapo, otherwise known as "Law Enforcement".

@logick0 "philanderers" that is so irrelevant it is actually stupid. And 'everyone knows' is what people say when there is no evidence to support their argument. Every profession will attract a certain number of bad people but it doesn't mean everyone in that profession is bad.

seat belt laws are stupid. if people don't want to where seat belts that's only hurting themselves. if want to do meth that only hurts myself.(unless i rob home depot for paint thinner because i ran out of money for drugs) if i buy a nuclear bomb that doesn't hurt anybody.(unless i detonate it) if i drive drunk that doesn't hurt anybody.(unless I cause a collision). if i want to go 180 mph on the streets it doesn't hurt anybody but myself.(unless i rear end a motorcycle or something similar)

@mrmike2702 what's a quota system?

[mrmike2702]

I live in ariz and Iknow a few motorcycle cops.

They told me that they have a quota  they show up for work grab a handful of ticket books

and start the day

[Jonny2585586]

@Rob2977 Damn right I've even been told by Georgia State Patrol and Carroll county that it's TRUE

[Rob2977]

BS!! for that quota system...They have those around the globe!!

@5150ToddB Granted…most European freeways are safer than our freeways…Autobahns have no general speed limit, but it does have advisory speed limit. In the US, tickets in fact lead to fewer vehicle accidents. Furthermore, tickets do help to reduce non-fatal injuries from vehicle accidents.
