235 International Raceway

With the rash of car wrecks on state Rt 235 lately and no police traffic enforcement 235 has earned the offical title as 235 international raceway. Were people can come from different states and countrys and drive as fast as they want and it's free.

You're extremely reactionary, aren't you? After something happens, you suddenly want all the cops to increase enforcement on that road. 235 didn't matter to you two days ago, but two bad crashes yesterday suddenly trigger a reaction from you. You did the same thing with 210.

There's nothing you can do to stop people who want to get themselves dead. The cops were out running enforcement this morning, and got a guy doing 115. Before they could pull him over, he crashed. How much more could the cops do?

Remember, cops aren't there to stop crimes, including traffic crimes. They are there to catch the perpetrators after they commit the crime.

What are you talking about? No police enforcement? Your just saying stuff to say stuff. I personally wrote two tickets on 235 yesterday, and I am not in a position where one of my primary responsibilities is writing tickets. Plus, yesterday on my way from Golden Beach to Hollywood, I backed up two officers on traffic. I think you speak not what you know!

Or hopefully while they are committing crimes.

Are you the cop that drives the unmarked car that blows past me every morning on my way to work?

Because we know that most LEO's were a little busy on the Northern end yesterday.

I don't know who you are? Are you the driver who drives 50 in a 55?

Same officers that were on that horrific accident were also at that difficult barricade. Thank you for recognizing that. It is sometimes a difficult job where we face critics at every corner, it is refreshing to have someone see the big picture!!!
