As far as traffic violations this month, the sheriff’s office issued 11 DWIs, 136 speeding tickets and 17 tickets for driving while under suspension. “That’s really becoming an outrageous thing,” Schiavone said about driving while under suspension. “Last month, there were 27. The month before, there were 30. Nobody has licenses anymore. I don’t know what it is.”
WOW!! I just showed these stats to my husband, who is in LE. He said that these numbers are "insanely ridiculous" for an entire county!!! :O
He works in a SMALL, QUIET town in the south. He said that HE averages 2 DUIs, 45 speeding cases (typically warnings), and 10 driving under suspensions, AND 10 drug cases per month. Keep in mind that this is ONE person in a SMALL town working DAY SHIFT!!! Many of his numbers would be higher if he worked nights and would be off the charts if he worked in an area like this!!
And those numbers are from an ENTIRE COUNTY and all of their deputies compiled!!!!
He said its no wonder all this is going on!!
He is a good, fair cop who is in it for all the right reasons!He is in it to help others and to make a difference!
Unfortunately, not all cops share his values and work ethic!!! :O
Gary, I thought this entire time you were a dude. My apologies.
