I am seeing people getting pulled over left and right … Especially in West Seneca and in Lackawanna … I saw only a few in Buffalo … and troopers galore!!! My grampa got pulled over the other day for 34 in a 30 … ( in a school zone) but that is crazy … it was his b-day and he even told the cop that … 85 years not a single ticket … cop walks back with the ticket , throws it at him and says happy b-day…WHAT A DICK that is just rude to do to a senior … And this one shocked me … There is a cop walking the intersection of Seneca and Harlem … walking up to every car inspecting them as much as possible while your at the red light … I saw him write two tickets while I was passing through there a few times today… This is just crazy … are they trying to make up for the budget or something … Anyone else seeing a lot of police activity?? ---

Probably has to do with the budget. They will get their money one way or another. Oh and 34 in a 30? That is such a dick move giving that ticket. ---

memorial weekend. They always are out in force this weekend. And with how broke the state is, they are going to be extra aggressive to turn some decent profits. ---

I just came from WS… saw them out in force. Saw the cop standing where you said Seneca & Harlem… I was wondering what he was doing. Saw a bunch of cars pulled over and getting pulled over. Like has been said… Broke state + Holiday Weekend (Expected to be the most traveled Memorial Day weekend in years by AAA) + End of the month = Cops GALORE getting everyone for everything they can find. ---

Nothing new to Lackawanna cops pulling everyone over. They have one of the most corrupt systems in the state. ---

Driving back to Western New York from Vermont tonight. I’ll be setting the cruise at 70mph on my unassuming station wagon and watching the mayhem unfold on others. Not going to risk getting a big old fine and hassle to save a few minutes of driving. ---
