Meet the man in "The Mustang" -- LMPD's most feared traffic officer

Citation stats are so 2004 just like pursuits were cool when they filmed Smokey and the Bandit in the 1970's. Today it's all about the numbers of traffic details you do in a year. That's what makes the Mayor's office happy. All the high risk activities are on your own time and at your own risk. Don't ever think anybody at the top wants anyone doing it. If they did, then tiny departments in the country wouldn't be making more major drug busts and gang arrests than all of LMPD combined.
