so i work on a sort of industrial parkway, not mutch on this strip of road. and for some odd reson the speed limit is the same as residential? 30. mph

so there usually is a motorcycle cop that sit's across the street from my shop. now i dont mind this but i got to thinking. yes people do speed down this road. but there's really no big deal about it... there's not mutch on this road!!!

i wonder if... they need to meet there quota or what because they must know that people speed down this road and can pull over with ease at least 3 times a day if they really try.

it's sad that they do this instead of where it REALLY matters. like the several houseing development's in this area..

funny because some speeder naild a guy useing a cross walk in my mother development. and they have yet to find the driver..

it's terrible

Who would've thought, a cop at a place where people break the law a lot //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif Sounds like a novel idea to me.

Well why bother citing lots of drivers that speed on a road with no residential populaton, instead of looking for speeders in places with children, pets, etc?

That's like putting a trooper out on a rural road where there's nothing for miles so people speed. Yes, they're speeding, but there's no negative consequences of said speeding unless a bored cop sees it.

there are also no negative consequences of getting high unless a cop sees it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

There is a road by where my parents live that have zero houses on it and pretty much nothing for miles, yet people are constantly dying on it. Everyone tells me to be careful on this road that has nothing on it.

there's a road like that out here to. due to nothing being around for miles. i think it's due to tha fact of if you where to be stranded. ur screwed

It looks good on their record as well to have numbers high, despite location and ease.
