Yes, 25 in a 20 was written. My Mom got one also. But it was dismissed, some thing as a lifelong resident.
I lived in a city in Texas that implemented community policing. One aspect was bike patrol in residential neighborhoods. Great idea, right? Well the bike patrol also carried portable radar units and would write citations to all of the friendly residents of the neighborhoods they were supposed to get to know. I guess that was a way to introduce themselves to the citizens. I have to admit it was great cover. Who thinks a guy on bike is shooting radar?
25 in a 20 mph zone is BS. I'm amazed that a cop would do this, unless he was trying to alienate the neighborhood.
Local communities have asked for this type of policing believing it will make them immune from the law! I live here--why are you writing me a ticket? We only want you to ticket people who do not live here!!
