Lines: 20 Oh, FOO! "The towns are out to get your money and that's why they use radar." Horse Puckey!!! My town does not have a radar unit, but they borrow one now and again. I wish we had one so we could put the clamps on the idiots who constantly use my street for a test track for their BMWs. The speed limit is 35, but there are enough twanks using it over 50 mph to populate every race track from here to Georgia. There are something over 57 kids who live within 100 yards of this street in a 1/4 mile stretch. Odds are, one of them is going to get hit by one of these feather brains. Our town does not need the money. We need our kids. And, I suspect that that is a valid reason for most towns to aquire a radar detector. The out to make money theory is just a bunch of hogwash dredged up by all of you twits who think owning a car is license to speed wherever and whenever you want. Wait till you have the patter of little feet running around the house and see how soon you start noticing the speed of cars past your front lawn. T. C. Wheeler
