Just got this email - 30 day speeding ticket frenzy

    Could be B/S....

    I was advised by a personal friend that the Gardai are starting up a 30 day speeding ticket rally. From what I hear, every Garda assigned to this has to hand out 1 ticket every 20 minutes.

    My friends contact on this was doing a broadband wireless install last week for a Garda from the Traffic Corps. While he was there, the Garda told him that starting Saturday 1st July, they will launch a 30 day speeding ticket frenzy. The state estimates that over e250,000 will be generated in speeding tickets. 100,000 will go to pay Garda overtime.

    There will be 50 Gardai on duty at all times patrolling on the following:

    M7/N7 from Naas to Portlaoise
    N4 to Mullingar from Dublin
    N6 to Athlone
    N81 to Baltinglass
    N11 to Wexford
    M50 Northbound to southbound
    Dublin - Drogheda M1

    Their will be additional Gardai assigned to 'flying squads' - mobile units to patrol all other routes in Dublin, Wicklow, Kildare, Meath, Laois, Westmeath, Offaly, Louth and Kilkenny

    They have been issued brand new unmarked cars and 5 kmph above the limit can justify a ticket.

    So be safe and don't speed, it's never worth it.
