Police Chief Gives Himself Ticket

In Kewaskum, Wisconsin, Police Chief Richard Knoebel accidentally ran passed a stopped school bus with its lights flashing. He had his emergency lights on going after the bad guys(aka changing lanes in order to not rear end a truck) when he did not realize that there was a stopped school bus. He screamed by knowing full well that it was illegal. He then fined himself $235 and marked down 4 points on his driving records. "If it brings notice to people that they should be stopping for school buses, I don't mind the notoriety," he said. Although he was most likely the hall monitor at school, it is nice to see good works being done. Whether he did it to gain publicity or he genuinely did it, it is a good example none the less. It is also good to see because so often, the cops that you see driving around town are the worst drivers and breaking the law the most.
