Arizona Sucks

In out last episode, we learned that Arizona DPS is happy to misdirect you with their photo radar warnings.
 
It gets better.

Dear Arizona
It’s 65.  Oh wait, 55.  Snap.  Nah, I guess I meant 65 after all.  Thanks for the $181.  Enjoy the jam  from artificially induced slowing.
It’s all about safety, really.

Eat the Rich

You know the Bush/John McLame’s economic plan sucks when the wealthy must visit Circle K for their 9 mpg Corniche needs.  (They do not sell Grey Poupon?  How gauche!)


Arizona sucks

Dear Arizona

Dogs?  Crack houses?  Crips?  Uh, I will just by going away now.

cop lights in the rear windows?

VERDICT:  inconclusive


AUTO SPY PHOTOGRAPHY 101
