A Heads up for my Michigan Buddies

RDHunter · 01-25-2007, 10:21 AM

Just thought I'd give all of my Michigan buddie's a word of warning.
The State Boy's will be out in full force during the month of February on a 30 day ticket frenzey.
Got word from a friend of mine that our first lady ordered over 50 troopers to patrol our highways 24/7 , she even got the part timers out to give tickets.
The E - Mail stated that they canpull you over for doing 5 miles over the limit and even a cracked windshield and not using your turn signal.
They gotta bunch of new unmarked Ford Crown Victoria's cruiser's so they gotta make the money to pay for them.
Here's a list of highways they will be patroling thoughtout the month I - 75 north and south , I - 94 between Ann Arbor and Port Huron , the entire I - 96 and I - 696 , I - 275 north and south and the M - 10 Lodge freeway.
So watch your speed , buckle up and make sure you use your turn signal's.

Hey jonnyslim

I can confirm this from a buddy of mine who works at the Capital. Seems its not just to pay for the new Vics but also to help with a little revenue.
