Island cops

[Rob Rockcrawler]

I have to pay more attention tot he parking lights on the new dodges that some lucky cops get to drive. The worst place for speeding i have found is down in south county. How am i supposed to drive 25 MPH for 4 miles on a road that 50 would be no problem. When i wake up and drive to dunkins from my cousins house in wakefield i always catch myself approaching 40. Ive heard that if its more than 5 over you are going to be stopped.

Pawtucket is a Sh!t hole. They could use all the money they can get.

Still a low class move when the address on her DL and registration is a whopping 5 blocks away

There are better ways of increasing revenue than causing hard-working residents' insurance rates to spike for the next 3 years---for a lousy 2 mph over the limit

Fully agree. However, 2MPH over and I wouldn't think twice about fighting the ticket. Speedometers are only accurate to within 2 MPH or so depending on tire inflation.

She never told me about it until she paid it

I've seen District Court magistrates here enter Not Responsible findings routinely for 5 over or less--regardless of what the cop says. Unless he also says that the motorist gave him a ration of crap, that is
