Additionally, there was a big stink over in Lafayette with the new set up they have with the speed control vans which are operated by a private company. They were clocking all vehicles and mailing out speeding tickets. They kept sending them to police who were speeding. The cops insisted they shouldn't be ticketed but they either were not on duty at the time or were not on a call at the time. So the tickets were being upheld. And a fight ensued.

Are we talking about marked police units getting popped for speeding?
