Police Decoy
Posted by LOTGK on December 13, 2007
Better Deterrent Than Speed Camera’s
On my way home from work the other day I spotted a local Boardman, Ohio police cruiser parked close to the road just beyond the peak of a hill on Market street. It is a perfect place for the police to sit and use their radar speed guns on unsuspecting motorists. But this cruiser was unmanned. A mere decoy.
What the Boardman police are doing is keeping that car in that spot for a few weeks, and then moving it to another location. In it’s place will be a “Manned” cruiser and the motorists that got used to the decoy will get stung with a speeding ticket.

I noticed the car this past weekend. Bastards!

That sucks balls. The cops setting up fakes to catch speeders.
LOTGK said
Yes Jimmy, and they move it a little every day or so. And sometimes, the bastards actually have a cop in the car shooting radar.

Shame on you, I hope the car will slow you down and save a life!

Just doing a public service Deb.
But perhaps the car would be put to better use if they actually put an officer in the car and set him / her on patrol to make out streets safer.
But that’s just me.

Hey, just down the street is a Dunkin Donuts. Maybe if they parked it there, no one would try to rob the place. It would make it’s placement a little more believable.
