In most areas, you can only get a point on your license if an actual officer gives you the ticket. You can't get them from automated speed cameras. Most of these tickets seem to be from cameras.

Why would he get tickets from his friends?

Do you think he shouldn't have friends just because he's a cop? That's pretty messed up.

Wait, I'm confused. I can't tell if you're being serious. If you are being serious, then that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying that everyone should be held accountable for their actions. And of course their friends should be able to give them a ticket.

Cops being held accountable for their actions? Terrorist!
