I don't know if this has already been posted, but wanted to let everyone know. I don't know if it is true or not...

Copied from Tristatetuners.com and I guess someone got it from the DSM forums.


I was doing an install last week for a New Jersey State trooper. While I was there, he told me that starting this Monday, May 2, Jersey will launch a 30 day speeding ticket frenzy. The state estimates that 9 million dollars will be generated in speeding tickets. 1 million will go to pay state troopers over time. There will 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

1-195 east and west

1-280 east and west

Rt. 130 north and south

Garden State Parkway north and south



I’m warning everyone now that 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 are bring in all their part timers on full time. If you work in New Jersey, New York, or CT, you must take one of there 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

 

good, im hardly on those roads..and if i am, its not in the 7..im safe

 

I think they must be doing the same thing here in TN. they have been out like crazy on the interstates for the past few days.

 

this was advertised last march... then heard it again for april...
asked the neighbor who troops.. its his first time hearing it..
and.. every 10 minutes.. .. doesnt it take him that long to if not longer to do the entire process....
im on those roads except 280 often with several of them on a daily basis and havent really seen any increase from the norm...
this is in comparison with the last several years of this quarter..

 

they are set up like that from the accident that happend the other day when a construction worker was killed by someone who was speeding and didnt know how to handle the car.. it was a bmw. the old model.. yall might have seen it on the news all this morning..

 

I got a ticket yesterday 98 in a 65. on 95. Stupid cops

 

Ouch. When you said "yesterday" I thought uh ohs...he must be a Fairfax County-er...and just got out of the slammer from the overnighter... So it def can be worse...

 

How much was the ticket?? i was doing about 105 in 695 on Weds, but no cops.. :-(
