This thread gets funnier and funnier and so many have no clue why.

The Citizens on Patrol for Speeders will start ticketing all vehicles that exceed 20 miles per hour. The first ticket will be 25$ and second and forward will be 75$. The Cops will work off a 30% commission rate, use their own golf cars, be equipped with radar guns, sirens, and use their own phone to capture pictures. The excess funds will be used to cover equipment costs, uniforms, food banks, and psychological evaluations for repeat offenders. If your interested in becoming part of COPS please call 1-800-468-9255 on Tuesdays from 10-2. Thank You!
So if these “cops” use their own carts that go 20mph how do they catch one going 25mph?

That’s a really good question. Maybe you should call the number listed tomorrow and find out.

the program gives them a supercharge so they can go 25 1/2 mph and even faster downhill.

Anyone who signs up can have their golf cart set to go 35 mph so they can catch them.

People will just refuse the ticket or throw it away. How will this be enforced and protect the ticket givers from violence?
and there will be violence.....guaranteed
First do you think I would give a lady a hard time. As I read it, if you do not have the proper ID on you like your Villages ID, you will be detained until the Sheriff arrives and then they will deal with you.
