The citys police-officers union is cracking down on the number of get out of jail free courtesy cards distributed to cops to give to family and friends.

Patrolmens Benevolent Association boss Pat Lynch slashed the maximum number of cards that could be issued to current cops from 30 to 20, and to retirees from 20 to 10, sources told The Post.

The cards are often used to wiggle out of minor trouble such as speeding tickets, the theory being that presenting one suggests you know someone in the NYPD.

The rank and file is livid.

They are treating active members like st, and retired members even worse than st, griped an NYPD cop who retired on disability. All the cops I spoke to were . . . very disappointed they couldnt hand them out as Christmas gifts.

But this isn't even that. It's a card you can hand out to literally anyone. It's not like it's you pulling over your brother and going, "okay, well, I'll let it slip this time for the sake of family", it's like Phil the butcher who is best friends with a guy in another precinct got this card because he won it in a poker game and now you've got to ignore the fact that he was going 200 in a school zone.

I agree with what you're saying but 200 in a school zone would be a felony not a misdemeanor. 99 percent of all misdemeanor would be for something really low level and dumb

Obviously, I'm exaggerating for effect.

That's not a problem lol. Nobody would ever cite their mother for example for a minor traffic offense like going 5 over. You are 100 percent lying if you say you would
