Comment (9/2003): Lived in that area for 30 years they are there and E.P. cops give no breaks. | |

Going South on Broadway and taking the merge for Waterman Ave. There is a stop sign rather than a yield at that merge with Waterman. Cop will back into a private driveway that belongs to a hairdresser on the left side of Waterman (after the Broadway merge). He steps out of car and uses RADAR/Laser to tag cars going west on Waterman and stops people for rolling stops coming from Broadway. The cops claims there are a lot of accidents there. Speed limit is posted as 25. | |
