WEBSITE OF THE DAY -- SpeedTrap.org


SpeedTrap.org
SpeedTrap.org teaches motorists everything there is to know about (duh) speed traps. It lists articles, laws, even ways to fight your speed trap ticket. But the most impressive feature is its directory -- from all 50 states, and some cities in Canada and Mexico -- of where cops tend to clock motorists. It's user friendly, so if you know a place where the five-oh are usually found you can add it to the list. The website is sponsored by the National Motorists Association (NMA), which was founded in 1982 to represent and protect the interests of North American motorists. Before I get any nasty emails, let me state that I myself do not drive fast. I have received only one speeding ticket in my life. I was going 8 miles over the limit. Of course I felt like the $250 ticket was a joke, and that the motorcycle cop hiding behind a truck with his speed gun trapped me.
