I have a question for any east coast cops and for Illinois Cops. I believe i heard that some east coast states send tickets in the mail if a car gets from point A (toll) to point b (toll) too fast. Is this true? If so, it is very sad...hello big brother!!!
there has been some talk about Illinois starting to do this with speeders with there I-pass tollway collection system. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about it, and if so ,what are the stipulations on how fast over? Illinois highway speeds are 55 mph, which is just ridiculous. Germany has done it; the autobahn has proven to be successful,So why do the states make such a big deal about speeding here. Probably because people don't know how to drive here.. oh and i forgot to build REVENUE!!! I currently work for a campus police department as a cadet and plan on applying In chicago within the next year.
I have talked to a few officers who like to go about 75-80 while on the highway, which is a nice pace to drive. 55 is way too slow, but 90 is probably too fast to be driving for more than a minute or two! anyways, one of the officer has an I-pass and if this new sending tickets deal is going to start, said he is taking off his licsense plates and paying the high rate toll(its cheaper if you have I pass) so he can't get outrageous tickets in the mail. And if he gets pulled over he will flash the badge. As long as an officer finds that he is ligit and officer he should be let go right. He likes to protect and serve. He has actually written 4 tickets in the last year and believes that traffic citations should only be written when someone is obviously driving wrecklessly and dangerous and putting OTHERS in danger.
let me know what you think.
