i received this email from a Lexus dealer in TN.

Thought everyone would like to know:

Tennessee will launch a 30-day speeding ticket frenzy beginning July 31, 2006. The state of Tennessee estimates that 9 million dollars will be generated in speeding tickets. 1 million will go to pay state troopers overtime. There will be 57 state troopers on duty at all times patrolling. They will be patrolling the following:

I-24 east and west
I-40 east and west
I-65 north and south
I-75 north and south

Now 5 mph above the limit can justify a ticket and every state trooper is supposed to pull a car over and write a ticket every 10 minutes. They have issued 30 brand new unmarked Crown Victoria cruisers and they are bringing all their part timers on full time. 101.5 FM confirmed all of this.

That sucks. I hate unmarked cop cars. Play the game fairly won't they?
