📝Why aren’t tickets & fines income based?📝 In this series, we’ll explore the questions that we’re not asking… and should be. Transcript: When I have occasionally received a parking ticket or a speeding ticket, which, you know, happens, or like in, in school zones, you know, different things like that, that I don't see the sign.
