Revenue Enhancement blowback....

Recommended Posts

http://www.seattlepi.com/local/komo/article/Man-gets-ticket-after-warning-of-Seattle-speed-6343855.php

This man stood near a stop sign and light that people routinely roll through. His sign, which happened to be made out of the top of a Rubbermaid box, said “Cops Ahead! Stop at signs and light.”

The Seattle police said they didn’t ticket him for holding up the sign they ticketed him for the “Stop at signs and light,” part. As this is giving instructions to other drivers. Essentially making his own road sign. They gave him his ticket, he crossed out the bottom of the sign and plans to continue holding it up.

IMO the real problem is not that they gave him a ticket, it is that most state legislators give the LEO's any legislation that they want. This is where it has to stop.

Yup, nothing more than revenue enhancement.

Uh, oh!
I just gave an oncoming biker the "cops ahead" gesture the other day.:o



Every now and then I give the headlight flash to oncoming vehicles for a speed trap behind me.

A coworker of mine who uses the same exit I do to get on the highway to work texts me when he passes a team of cops running speed traps with a radar positioned on the bridge overpass. "Cops on overhead bridge"

I've fucked over a few drivers who were being assholes like either not moving over for faster drivers behind them or those who tailgate like theyre in a hurry and damn those lined up 6 or 7 vehicles deep in front of him. Wait your fucking turn. Lead them right into the trap as I coast before I get into radar range. :)
