well what can i say. wisconsin state patrol can be real pricks. now not all of them are because ive been warned for going 85 in a 65 by one, but the 4 or 5 others ive met along this hundred mile stretch of highway are another story. i recieved 5 tickets in the past 2 years on this road. the last one was by airplane, 71 in a 65 $141! ..my radar detector didn't go off and i was wondering wtf happened until he told me they were "using the planes today". the previous 4 tickets were all with laser! it really sucks because by the time the detector alerts it's already too late and ya might as well not even try to slow down cus he already has the speed locked. some of the sneakiest places ive seen them hide are along this road. eg. backed up into a snowmobile trail along the road so you don't see him until you're directly perpendicular to his car and he can rape your ass.. or in areas where there are trees seperating the left and right side of the highway they hide , sometimes 4 or 5 in a few miles.. the park in the middle gravel "no u turn, authorized vehicle only" gravel turn around connecting the 2 directions of traffic. and on thanksgiving i got raped again for 76 in a 65 with one parked on a bridge overpass right around new auburn.. i saw his window rolled down and i grabbed my brakes but it was too late. he was already coming down the exit ramp right on my ass .. he followed me a mile or so .. proly just to freak me out, finally lit me up and there was NO WAY in hell i was getting out of it,, i told him i was at my parents and headed home early because my girlfriend took herself to the hospital cus she was puking blood..fuck off black-hearted pigs. also my buddy just got a ticket a week or so ago for going 19 in a 15 (school zone) this road (macarthur -by the elementary school) usually 30 mph when no kids around! .. i didn't believe him until i saw the ticket. 177$! wtf?!?! that was from one of the uw-ec university pigs.
