According to an article in yesterday’s Kansas City Star, the small suburb of Mission, Kansas is the area’s leading leveler of fines and tickets for motorist misconduct. The story, “Data show Mission is the KC area’s traffic ticket capital,” explains that it is the only city in the metro to write more tickets per year than it has residents.
“The fact that (Mission police) are generating more tickets than there are people in the town is pretty remarkable,” said John Bowman, the [National Motorist Association]’s communications director. “We don’t see this very often. It sounds pretty predatory to us.”
