Yes I would because when I would be at work, she really wouldn't be any different than any other citizen who broke the law.
My mother would expect it because she brought me up to be honest and do my job right and to treat everyone equally.
I worked with an officer who never made exceptions to the rule and one time he pulled the mayor over ~ the mayor got the ticket just like any other citizen would have and the mayor paid it like any other citizen would. But that was years ago when people were more honorable about things and took responsibility for their own actions.

Was she going 47 in a 45, or did she run a red light? Did she wander over the line while putting on lipstick, or whip in front of a semi at a stop light? My point is, was she seriously endangering herself or other drivers, or was her infraction minor? If she endangered herself or others seriously, you should ticket her. It's your job, for God's sake! If she was just in a minor violation of the law, give her a lecture just like she gave you when you were 12, and give her a warning. Live up to the badge, but don't be anal.

This is a common question used throughout Criminal Justice courses becuase its an ethical dilemma. I would not write her a ticket but a written warning. If it happened a second time I think my approach would be different.

Are you kidding me? If she deserved the ticket and i denyed writing her one, she'd be happy with me but i'd be kicked off the force. Yet if i gave her the ticket she'd never let me forget it. I deffinately wouldn't give her the ticket, just set her on her way with a warning.

My police officer fiance said "of course not!", but he said if it was a DUI he'd make sure she didn't drive for a while. He said its very political in ticket writing, in his town anyway. He's not supposed to write tickets for town selectmen or anything, so if he can't for them, he's certainly not going to for family.

I would really want to give her (2) two but most likely I would give her a stern warning and let her know it I find myself it this position again be prepared to get two or three the next time.

If I was a traffic cop and she was breaking the law, yes. If she is rushing to the hospital, I would escort her. Anyone that needs to be pulled over when they are driving is presenting a danger to themselves and others.I don't care who they are.

No! I think the best thing we could do is completely do away with traffic police. At best they are a money earning arm of police activity, and at worst a waist of taxpayer money. They could be out solving real crimes instead of sitting around playing hide-n-seek.
