This Alabama County Issues The Most Tickets In The State
All my life, the folks I've met in law enforcement deny that any "ticket quota" exists.
That's their story, and they are definitely sticking to it!
This is good information for any drivers in Alabama.
First, let's start with a nugget of ticket information about one town.
This is interesting.
The town is between Bessemer and Birmingham.
They put in some of those dreaded speed cameras. Photo-enforced law enforcement.
My absolute favorite.
What if someone else is driving my vehicle?
A good lawyer, like Steven Mezrano at 205-900-9000, could get this thrown out. Yes, I did a free plug for my lawyer.
According to WVTM-TV, the town of Midfield, Alabama, issued more than 20,000 citations worth over $500,000 in revenue.
That's lots of tickets for a town that size.
If you drive through that city, consider yourself warned.
Next, what county in Alabama writes the most tickets?
According to Google A.I., that county is Lawrence County.
The city is Hillsboro, and it has some of the most intense speed traps in the state.
They issue more than 4 tickets per resident.
Get this, Hillsboro police officers issue more tickets on overtime than cities 500 times their size.
Other speed-trap cities include North Courtland, Summerdale, Brookside, and Silverhill.
Be careful and obey the speed limit.
