Screaming Bean
Wednesday, June 25, 2008

Like most people I've gotten a speeding ticket. I've only gotten one in my driving career *knock on wood*, but for me that's one too many. Recently we had the opportunity to get a radar detector at a really reduced rate as a result of a raffle. It tells me all sorts of weird things, since it reads 3 radar bands plus lasers. I do not take it with me when I go to work as my commute is quite short. However, I almost needed it this morning. Right outside my office, a local cop was running a speed trap in the middle of a 4-lane road. Sitting in the middle turning lane, causing a total hazard...all in the name of safety? What the hell? I've seen multiple people pulled over near the office, and I am so tempted to just hang out my shingle and handle traffic tickets here. Easy money, all one police department. Part of my lawyer brain wants to know if that sort of speed trap tactic is legal...but then again, there's a personal driveway they sit in as well, and that is just plain trespassing. Can you tell I'm bored?
