Apple pie and speed traps. America is great.
« on: August 17, 2015, 08:44:56 AM »
CBS reported on it's morning news that there is a push to pass a federal law saying no city or county could get a large percent of their budget from speeding fines.  Then they showed a town in OKLAHOMA that does this.  A new state law stopped this, but any fine income over 30% goes to the state.  I think these speed traps a great, an American icon.  For sure keep the feds out of this.
