been caught speeding


rumors are floating around the Garden State that the State Police is going on a ticket blitz for the next 30 days.
Officers are being ordered to pull over anyone going at least 5 mph over the speed limit.

The following e-mail has been floating around, warning people of the initiative:

Got this
email from the NJ Limo Association
last night. Wanted to make sure you knew
about this too, just in case.
:)


New Jersey
will launch a 30 day speeding
ticket frenzy.The state estimates that 9
million dollars will be generated in
speedingtickets. 1 million will go to
pay state troopers over time. There will
be 50 state troopers on duty at all
times patrolling the 9 main intersections and
highways.


They are
the following:

I-295 north and south
1-95 (Jersey Turnpike) north and
south

1-80 east and west
I-287 north and south
I-78 east and west
I-195 east and west
1-280 east and west
Rt. 130 north and south
Garden State Parkway north and
south


Warning for
everyone: Now 5 mph above the
limit can justify a ticket and every state
trooper is supposed to pull a car
over and write a ticket every 10 minutes.
They have issued 30 brand new unmarked
Crown Victoria cruisers and they are
bringing in all their part timers on
full time.If you work in New
Jersey, New York, or CT, you must take one of these
interstates, routes, or
parkways. It's up to you how fast you are doing when
they do. I was told
101.5 FM confirmed all of this.So be safe and don't forget
speeding tickets
are on you.You've been warned.Good Luck.

Our neighbors in New York are worrying about Suicide bombings and what are we worried
about? Ticket quotas...yep...our priorities are straight.
