[DML] Re: Chicago Show '06

["Nathan Sobieralski" <valleyrat12@xxxxxxxxx>]

They tried this in Canada and it failed miserably. As I recall 
everyone refused to pay the tickets because the ticket volume was so 
high. I am sad to hear it is happening here in the US.

photo-enforcement vans on the expressway have started nabbing 
speeders, and violators will soon begin receiving 375 dollar tickets 
in the mail. The Illinois State Police is putting in the radar vans 
on the Chicago expressway -- which is currently undergoing a $600 
(m) million dollar reconstruction.

in the Dan Ryan construction zone is 45 miles-per-hour, but the 
photo enforcement vans are being used only when construction workers 
are present.
