Using the next ramp won't fix it. Some idiot will run into them there, also.
They need to write tickets, and pull licenses. Too many clueless morons behind the wheel, of anything that rolls.

That is a Fed-Ex thing here in the northwest. They had five accidents in the week before thanksgiving due to driving to fast for conditions. Seems as soon as the snow flies so do there trucks. Glad to hear the officer was ok.

NOTHING inspires more stupidity than motor vehicles, firearms don't even come close.
If there is any other discipline where the vast majority of practitioners believe 40 hours of training covered it, and practice is unnecessary (They're just naturally good at it!), and the rules don't matter (You can ignore them and still be the best that ever was), I don't just not know of it, I can't imagine it.Vilhiem Thanks this. -

i always say i was looking for a safe place for BOTH of us -
Just curious. Why is an officer employed by the big city of Braselton GA (population 7300)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braselton,_Georgia
is out on the superslab giving away speeding tickets? I know the answer, GA allows every Barney Fife in the state to extort money from motorists on interstate hwys that run through their jurisdiction. Hands down the most irresponsible policy-law allowed. Tired of tracking down lost dogs and grandma sliding past the only stop sign in town? Lets go out on the big road and get us some of them out of state tourists.
They do not have the training/professionality for this type of work. If they qualified they would become GA state troopers. But most of them would never qualify. Even worse when they pull over a big truck and start doing safety inspections...
Not all states allow this sort of nonsense... -
Maybe this gives you an idea of how this town is run...From Wikipedia:
In 1989 actress and Georgia native Kim Basinger bought the town for $20 million, intending to turn it into a tourist destination.[SUP][6][/SUP] Five years later, on the eve of personal bankruptcy, she and her partners sold the town at a large loss. -
Be glad you're not in Canada? (Though, I like the idea.)
Alberta specifically has both red light and traffic cams for speeders. Both were tried in Ga but were contested so much it was found not to be worth it.
My knowledge is limited of how canada does it but I understand you're required to bring both an alibi AND the guilty person if you weren't driving your vehicle the day the ticket was issued.
