This city's police handing out sweet treats instead of tickets

In Boise, Idaho, anyone who is pulled over by the city’s traffic enforcement officers for going five miles over the limit or for a minor infraction like a broken turn signal or taillight, is getting a sweet and unexpected surprise: a couple of candy bars instead of a ticket. Since 2015, Boise’s traffic officers have handed out the chocolate bars as a message of goodwill and safety to area residents for a two-week period leading up to Christmas Day. The city’s parking enforcement officers do the same.
