hahah wow. so I went with a bunch of friends today down to Import Fusion in Pittsburgh. after getting lost, losing people, etc, we finally get to the park where the show was held. I’m always the one last in line who gets left behind, so once I paid my parking fee, I tried to stick with the pack as much as possible…there were various obstacles to get to the parking lot including the roughest speed bumps I’ve ever encountered in my life, and a ton of random stop signs. in spite of my efforts, I was still lagging behind everyone. I stopped at the last stop sign, which had another to the right of it, seeming to be for an access “on ramp” for delivery vehicles or whatever. after the stop sign, I did my best to catch up to the rest, but knew not to go too fast being that it was a state park, yadda yadda…so we go in to park, and here comes this golf cart rolling up behind me. as I was waiting for the car ahead of me to park, this guy walks up to me with his little official pa police polo on and starts bitching at me…the dialog went something like this:
guy: “do you have any idea what the speed limit here is?”
me: “ummm no I dont”
guy: “fourteen miles per hour! you were speeding and you blew the stop sign! where’s your driver’s license?!?”
me: “uhh in my wallet?”
guy: “license and registration” (…handed it to him…he walkies over and starts to run my plate in his little walkie talkie lingo) “ny plate alpha victor bravo…”
me: “sorry if I was speeding, being that there was no posted speed limit, I just assumed it was the same as the street that turned into this”
guy: “well you have two options: I can either write you 2 citations for $200 each, or you can save yourself the hassle and go spend it on your girlfriend or something”
…no ticket, no nothing…he basically wasted his breath and proved to me that PA is just as back asswords as I thought it was
first off, I had no idea that I could get pulled over and ticketed by a rentacop in a golf cart, second 14mph speed limit? Pa _must_ be fuckin retarded.
and for those of you who are gonna say it’s my own fault for speeding and I should be happy that I didn’t get ticketed, any of my friends can vouch for me that a good 99% of the time I drive like an 80 year old woman as well as make full stops and stop signs.

absolutely true. They are just like a state trooper with more power cause all they have to do is say i think you are a poacher and search your car without a warrent or your permission.

I still wonder every day how they got that speed. What the hell is it based on? Golf carts alone go 12 mph.
