Volunteer citizens clocking speeders

[E5RANGER375]

I dont have a problem with concerned citizens taking action in there communities as long as they do it safely and dont endanger themselves or others. If you break the law speeding, you know you face punishment. man up if your caught and fight it or pay it. thats your choices by law. this isnt the same as being monitored in your own house or something. i dont care about this issue.

People just need to leave everyone else alone, mind their own business, tend their own lawns, regulate their own lives and move on in life.




The "mes " only look out for themselves.

Good people watch out for and help others.

I agree about helping others.
But buying a radar gun, clocking people, then chasing them down and hassling them is not helping anything.

It's a GOOD way to get in more trouble than can be imagined when you confront and hassle a total stranger in public.

With people out there that will shoot a police officer for a simple traffic stop, the risk of some "busybody" citizen getting shot is even greater with some of the nuts out there.

It's rather silly for these soccer-moms to be standing on the street corner clocking speeders. If they are flying through a residential neighborhood...just toss out some Stop-Sticks. That'll slow 'em down.

So what's happening with the info then? Are they just turning it over to the police? What are the police doing with it? Can they write a ticket based on what Suzy Soccer Mom told them happened?

I am not being a smartass but did you read the article?
