A Richardson, TX policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders,
but wasn't getting many. Then he discovered the problem -- a 12-year-
old boy was standing up the road with a hand painted sign, which
read "RADAR TRAP AHEAD." The officer then found a young accomplice
down the road with a sign reading "TIPS" and a bucket full of money.
(And we used to just sell
lemonade!)
A BETTER ONE... A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding
through an automated radar post in Plano, TX. A $40 speeding ticket
was included. Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of
$40. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.
