SPEED TRAPS!

Speed Traps

Nothing is worse than coasting down the highway then seeing those familiar blue lights in your rear view mirror; those lights are a clear indication that you are being pulled over. Perhaps your first thought is to get out of the way of the officer so he can pass you to pull over the culprit then you realize when he pulls directly behind you with his lights still flashing blindly you are the "culprit". Your second thought is probably "what did I do wrong?" still not realizing you were speeding.

Let's face it, speeding is something most of us do and sometimes most of us don't realize we are doing it. We're just cruising along with the rest of the traffic and happen to be the unlucky one who gets pulled over next to receive a ticket.

Our law enforcement officers are simply doing their job but there are some things we can do to educate ourselves to avoid the speed traps that they set for us. Before you take that next trip down the highway check out these interesting sites that will allow you to locate the speed traps before you have to learn the hard way:

Nobody wants to be on the receiving end of an officer handing you a ticket because you can bet it's not going to be to the Policeman's Ball.
