"The SFMTA said the specific language in the vehicle code exempts fare inspectors from the anti-quota law.
'Fare Inspectors are neither peace officers or parking enforcement employees,” SFMTA spokesperson Paul Rose said in a statement. “This code does not apply and citation issuance was not the sole reason for discipline.'"
"The SFMTA employs 50 fare enforcement officers, according to the agency. From July 1 to June 30 in Fiscal Year 2015-16, the SFMTA issued 45,841 tickets and that yielded $2.2 million.
