Re: New Cop Cars
Its not always as simple as that. Some roads go up and down with the speed limit. The traps are usually where it has gone down and typically not far from it if not on it. Then you have to add places that do what orlando did with the speed limits signs. They are not a set rate. They go up and down digitally for whom ever feels the safe speed is at the time.

First, yes, in most states, it's illegal to eat while driving, generally under a driver distraction law. Second of all, the problem with speed traps is that they're an egregious example of using fines as revenue generation. I've heard of highways where they've specifically set speed limits to drop and then rise again in a concerted effort to trick drivers and get money. This one is so bad that AAA put up a billboard warning drivers of it. The worst speed traps? They’re in Florida « Places we go, People we see. We don't see as many of these up north here, but, for example, there was one wealthy neighborhood who had the speed limit lowered from 40 to 25 just one one small stretch of a road. Your chances of passing a cop on this stretch of road are close to 100%. There are sharp, blind turns later on in the road where safety is a much bigger concern, but the cops stay on this stretch, because they know that they can get more tickets this way.
Not only is it using fines as a revenue source, they're using our federal highways like their own personal troll bridges to extract payouts from the citizens that they're supposed to be serving. US citizens should not be hustled by their own public servants.

Re: New Cop Cars
well a few months back a cop tagged me with a laser for the first time and sarced the shit of me.
I was shaking so bad I he thought something was wrong with me and he saw I had clean record and gave me a warning.
I told him I am sure your nice guy but i have never been pulled over. I was doing 56 coming out 50 mph zone going to 45 mph zone"And the hits just keep on coming." - Tom Cruise, A Few Good Men
