Hey, Mass. Pike drivers: Heads up

By Paul McNamara on Mon, 12/17/07 - 2:13pm.

Never-ending toll increases apparently aren't enough: The Massachusetts Turnpike Authority now says it intends to bleed an additional $600,000 out of me and my fellow beleaguered motorists using radar.

From AP:

A 2008 budget plan projects $600,000 more in revenue through additional state police radar enforcement. That means more tickets for speeding drivers.

No pretense. No mention of public-safety imperatives. No mercy. Just a bare-knuckled cash grab.

In New York this kind of thing turned out to be just a rumor ... or so it seems.

We aren't going to be so lucky.
