How likely is it that this is true?

I just got an E-mail and it said:

try to corroborate it with local media sources. Whenever PDs do a campaign like this, they advertise it first because the point is not to make money on speeding tickets, it's to save lives. The fact that they are even pointing to a monotary goal makes me think its probably fake though.

Yup. If you get it in an email, and it has a forward.. yeah.

I79 cops are evil i live on the northern end they pulled my parents over for making a bad merge and called it reckless driving so i believe its possible to rack up that much tickets

There is a 95% percent chance of truth here. Pushes like this always net huge gains for the agency that does it. Speeding is something that most everyone is guilty of, myself included, therefore, ticketing = good money.
