Don't police officers have some discression as to whether they write tickets? If so, they should use that discression to ticket those who are driving dangerously, not just to fill a "quota". I believe they can give warnings too instead of writing up a 5 over. Most cops that I know allow a little leeway more than 5 mph, usually about 10 mph. Being strict and inflexible won't help anyone, least of all the reputation of the department.
