Warning to Pennsylvania residents about speeding! The following was a warning that was sent out to us at work. One of the other techs confirmed it with a trooper friend of his.
For those of us who like to drive fast.....
Pennsylvania State Police will launch a 30-day speeding ticket frenzy throughout
the state starting February 1, 2006. The State estimates that 22 million dollars
will be generated in speeding tickets. 3 million will go to pay Trooper overtime
costs and benefits. There will be 150 State Troopers on duty during all shifts
patrolling the highways. Significant radar enforcement will occur along the
I-70, I-76, I-79, I-80, I-81, I-83, I-84, and I-90 corridors.
Motorists traveling 6 mph or more above the limit will receive a ticket and
every State Trooper is supposed to pull a car over and write a ticket every 10
minutes.
Pennsylvania has activated 50 new unmarked cruisers of various makes and models
for this pilot program to raise extra funds and meet mandated quotas. The
Pennsylvania State Legislators dreamed up this program to help offset the
additional funding required to hire 60 new Troopers. I was told KDKA TV and
Radio stations confirmed this. So be safe and don't forget speeding tickets are
on you.
