Never had a problem in Utah. Do we need to bash a whole state as a "bastion" of something for 1 ticket scandal in a small town?

The ticket book should be numbered and each officer assigned the ticket book, the way waitresses are.

All copies of the tickets should be kept at the court in chronological order, to prevent fraud.

Always ask to see the radar readout; but know this; if a jurisdiction doesn't keep them in order, it's hard to prove a crooked cop.

How convenient for speed trap towns.

It's real easy to defraud the public, when an officer can issue the same ticket, to multiple drivers, without clearing the radar gun of the original infraction.

If the tickets are in chronological order, it would be easy to spot 20 or more issued tickets, for the same 60 mph in a 40 mph zone.

As you review for your defense, you see a ticket at 6:00 AM for a 60 in a 40 and at 4:00 PM every ticket issued that day, is for the exact same 60 in a 40, you know something is up.

So to hide this money making scheme, jurisdictions mix up the tickets; just try and find the needle in the haystack.
