Chief of Police David S. Pingel said he does not think officials have preconceived notions about people in these age brackets. I'm not aware of any police department that has a quota system. The police department's records show that the region of Kirksville where the most traffic stops occurred was between Jefferson, Normal, Franklin and Halliburton streets. Three hundred forty of the 4,014 traffic stops in 1999 took place on the square. It poses a threat to other drivers.
Some students also express concern for the safety of pedestrians on and near campus.
But I think traffic laws need to be more strictly enforced especially around campus and near crosswalks.
