There is NO solid quota, worst thing they would have is the chief telling them they should do more, but there are no numbers involved.
Back to the situation, he never got the ticket for the light, but he got two tickets for license. One for the lack of it, the other for the fact that he was driving while suspended. Also an inspection ticket.
I’m not looking to fight it, I was just trying to narrow down the legal point of the technicality. The light was never an issue, I know it wasn’t and it still works fine.
I’ve talked to an Albany Sheriff today, and he did agree that the fruit of the poisonous tree would apply even in a traffic violation, but fighting it and proving it would be a stretch.
Albany Sheriffs have the plate readers too. Those things are fun, but overrated, they aren’t a super weapon and are quite annoying, most of them ride around with them off.
