The Rules

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I don't know if anyone was actually lying. And more importantly I don't know how the revenue works from these tickets in Singapore, but US police get their funding from these types of tickets, and if it's the same there, the police will also be required to get a certain number of tickets a month to keep the department funded.

I have recently heard many reports about Chinese police upping the number of tickets they issue, as they are also facing a funding deficit.
