It doesn't pay to fly the Pennsylvania Turnpike.
 

The toll is redonculous...

The last time I drove the Pennsylvania Turnpike they were using unmarked police cars to catch people. A red convertible passed me like I was standing still with a state trooper inside.

The Pike ain't to bad. Mostly slow.
Take 80 across it's much faster and in better shape.

Just don't let Jeff drive.:O: Its even faster and your eyeballs will be fored to the back of your head when he takes off.:D

That depends who is on the lead bike he's trying to keep up with :)

Sheesh, more idiots against common sense. What would his widow's bill have been if the worst had happened?

You should be thankful you weren't on the trip I finished the other day!
Round trip from Ohio to Dalton, Georgia in 14 hours!
Had a brand new Dodge Ram to play with.
:D

You turned into a sheep worrier?:06::O:

Wonder what the fine for flying under a bridge on the Susquehanna River would be in this day and age? ...or what would they do if you brought it down on a military base today? I miss my Pop! :salute:

I invite you all to the Garden State Parkway in NJ, if you are not going 85 then you are too slow.

The state cops will actually pass you going faster, and wave at you as they do so.

New Jersey autobahn!

All jokes aside, the parkway is a toll road that shoulda been free, like 15 years ago, but government bloat will never give up a revenue producer, and once EZPASS got in on it, yeah well, the promise of no tolls is long gone.

So the cops kinda let ya speed, if your not being wreckless. NJ state boys are ok compared to the locals, *mutters*

Every police force out there does that. I've nearly been hit on an interstate at night by a gung ho copper peeling out of the median in his black Mustang interceptor. He did turn on his lights... after he got on the roadway.:hmmm:
If we had connected, guess who would have been blamed for not yielding to an emergency vehicle? Hint: It wouldn't be the officer. It's a good thing I'm like Kid Rock.

It's the same here in Utah. I-15 crosses the western desert and the salt flats, 120 miles from Salt Lake to Wendover, at the Nevada border. The speed limit is posted at 75 mph, but UHP usually ignores you if you stay below 90. They're busy chasing the ones doing 120.

The 401 up here the limit is supposed to be 62.5mph which is 100 kph, but nobody does it. You can see them doing anything from 110-145 kph or 66-90 mph. Most people stay under the 150 mark because at 150 or 50 over they can lose their license and car on the spot.

I dont think you understand the devious-ness of the PSP. I've seen a Geo Metro pull some one over on the Turnpike there. They go out in the impound lot, see which car they want for the day, and take that one.

New York SP were using well marked Z28 Camaros for a while. Those were impressive cars..... till I watched one sink in the mud in a Uturn.

Driving down the highway and a cop ran out from the bushes.. waving his hands at me.. so I pulled over next to him.

Wound down the window and said to him.. I was only doing 110kph (speed limit is 120)...
Not you he said.. it's the guy coming up behind you.. he's doing 220+ kph.. :doh:
They must have trapped him further back as usually they have a backup team equipped with cars that have 'jet engines'.
I uncounted the backup team !!

That guy was probably locked up and his license/car confiscated !!

With that Pennsylvaniathing .. shouldn't that be part of the service that you tax payers pay for .. therefore should be free ?
