Don't police have discretion on whether they give a ticket or a warning? This is how not to community police

Don't police have discretion on whether they give a ticket or a warning? This is how not to community police

When we lived in Swift Current my best friend's spouse was an RCMP member. The biggest perk I remember, other than getting to go to the policeman's ball and sit with members, was getting out home watched. One time a car appeared parked on the very end of our driveway. For days. After a week I casually mentioned that it was strange that no one came and asked but it must be a neighbour. The guy said he ran the plates the first day it appeared and knew how it was connected to a neighbour. SC was a weird place, entitled towards people "not from there".
