Subject: Warning to Pennsylvania residents about speeding!
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.

I think 21 is more of a "milestone" because you can go to bars and drink legally and yadda yadda yadda. I guess I never really looked forward to being 22 until I was 21. But I do think 22 is going ot be a more important year overall.
