I have never heard of this before. He was goin 80-85 in 60 zone and got tagged. Cop told him passing motorists through ohio have to pay 100 bucks. Ofcourse he didn't have cash but luckily he had a triple AAA trip interuption thing. My question.........wtf, who has 100 bucks on them these days?

Same thing happened to me about 14 years ago when I came back to Ohio during college. Cop pulled my friend over for speeding and nailed me because I didn't have my seatbelt on (spare me your diatribe). Cop said I had a choice because I was out of state - pay the fine at her car or see a judge the next morning, which meant I would have to stay the night in jail. Paid with a credit card in her patrol vehicle.

14 years ago they took credit cards in patrol vehicles? Weird, plus since it's paper record I guess this is a legit practice?

I got pulled over in Germany by German Policia, and they demanded 50 Marks ($30.00 at the time). This was a few miles from my base, and that town was going to have some sort of festival in two weeks. So the German Policia were out "fund raising" buy pulling over American cars.

They wanted me to pay it and they would give me no ticket nor no receipt. I told them to just right me a ticket.

They left for a moment and then came back and said, "We will let you go this time to further the German American relationship.":confused:

Well thats just rude, you can't say Ohio sucks, just because of this thread, or because of one stupid cop. I am not saying the OP is a liar, but you don't even know the full details of this. It just sounds like a greedy cop to me, but I would think we would of heard of this on the news if it happened alot. Although one thing that makes me wonder is that if he was indeed doing 85 in a 60, then that is wreckless endangerment, which is a lot worse then just a standard speeding ticket, so maybe that ha something to do with it.


So did he actually get a ticket from the cop? I would definately contest it, or at least try to figure out what the deal is. I can't believe a cop would do something like this, knowing full well that motorist could easily get him in trouble, assuming what he did was indeed wrong. Just sounds odd to me. We need more details.

25MPH over the limit is wreckless operation, and may have had something to do with this. There's a chance the cop may have been obliged to "run him in". He may have gotten off easy. Was this in Linndale by any chance?

Years ago, when the world was young, humans used paper and pen to store data until it could be sent(usually by spoken voice over a phone line) wherever it needed to go.
