If one doesn't have a better solution given the current budget then one is just blowing hot air.
Here...I have a better solution. They certify some private companies...like maybe towing companies...that have people who are trained and certified to write up non injury accident reports.
They add $100 to the towing bill for the report or maybe just charge $50 per vehicle to write it up and the LVPD accepts the report into their system. You don't tie up expensive officers with this kind of paperwork and they can then be focused on fighting crime or whatever.
Hell, they should outsource this even if the City Paid for the reports. I'm sure it's a lot cheaper than one of those high priced city workers. I bet we could find a lot more to outsource if they really wanted to save money.
