No municipal police department may impose any quota with respect to the issuance of citations to pedestrians or summonses for motor vehicle violations upon any policeman in such department.

As used in this section, “quota” means a specified number of citations issued to pedestrians or summonses for motor vehicle violations to be issued within a specified period of time.
