Case in point? Police officers in Los Angeles chan Howard and David Benioff sued the city for establishing a quota system ticket (I knew it!). According to the Los Angeles Times reported that officials were instructed to write up 18 tickets each in turn. And not just any type of ticket - we're talking high-cost crimes like blowing stop signs and other major moving violations.

The Los Angeles Times reports that the officers won their civil case by a vote of 11-1 and were sentenced to 2 million U.S. dollars due to loss of reputation and actions of the work that resulted from the refusal of officials to meet that quota. Gregory Smith, a lawyer for Benioff says he hopes the decision helps the elimination of quotas, adding that the practice is "a direct violation of the Vehicle Code and this case was about these officers being asked to violate the law .

defense of the city was that the department had general goals for the posts, but only for improving safety and reducing fatalities. Former Police Commander Paul Kim Los Angeles tells a different story, which demuestraque time, paramedic response times and gas prices are more likely reasons of traffic deaths.
