Speed Cameras

[1BROWNWRENCH]

Morning bud.

Sounds like you had an interesting night.

Just an autopsy. That, and finding an entire PC left outside wide open with all the volume in it. No keys in sight. Somebody must have been in a hurry to go home.

It should be law if they use red light cameras they must show count down of the light .

If you have a pickup with the plate directly behind the hitch, get the biggest hitch ball you can find. I saw this work getting one thrown out because one character was obscured.

Would you go over 35mph? View attachment 231815

Is that a sheet of ice out there??? If not then that’s childs play....a little blowing snow??

 

[DOK]

Any of you ever been caught by one? i hear they don’t call it a moving violation and insurance does not go up.

What elected officials would allow these to be used?

Those looking to extort more money from the driving public.

It looks like a sheet of ice to me. I'd be crawling on roads like that lol.

Wouldn’t they be a 1 term wonder, consequently?.

After a trip back from Florida (my friend and I drove his new TranAm) I believe it was the state of Georgia that sent him a pic of his license plate and a bill/ticket for speeding.
My friend sent them a copy of the bill and a picture of the money it would take to pay the ticket.
They werent nearly as amused as we were and I still laugh about it to this day.

They did not send a picture of handcuffs?

No but they did send him a letter saying that his right to drive in their state was REVOKED.

It is funny now but that stuff has a way of catching up to you. I have a nephew who was quite the hell raiser in his younger days. After he straightened out his act he thought he had all his "crimes" straightened out and paid for and he was moving to Arizona. Before he left he had his dad go with him to the cop shop to make sure everything was good to go. He wanted a fresh start. When they ran his name through the computer the cop looked at him and said "well I guess we've been looking for you" and locked him up. Some kind of ancient warrant that he had supposedly forgot about came back to haunt him.

I swear 9 out of 10 people around here have a warrant out for their arrest. Nobody wants to show up for their court date.

One of the local McDonalds is also the Jefferson Bus Lines transfer /break spot. About 2:00 in the afternoon there are usually 5 buses parked in their lot and the place is packed with shifty looking characters. I bet if the cops ran a warrant check on that bunch 3/4 of them wouldn't be getting back on the bus.

Gotta read the fine print.
Heck if I would have gone to the cop shop when I was a kid and told them I was gonna move out of town they probably would have driven me there...warrant or no warrant.
You know they say bad kids make good cops...

and teamsters.

I would say that statement is probably true. Nobody.
