My son and I was coming through Lakeland last night around midnight. We were on Hey 98 and came up to a light and it went from green – yellow – red so fast my son had to slam on the breaks in order to stop. We laughed and said, WTF? Well a couple of lights later we were coming close and it turned yellow, now we were going the speed limit and if we had tried to stop we would have slid half way through the intersection. So my son did what I would have done and kept going. The light changed so fast to red we were underneath it and that’s when we saw a bright flash. I’m sure I’ll get a $158 ticket in the mail next week.

Most tickets I get I deserve. I’ve gotten a few speeding tickets and didn’t bitch to much because I was speeding.  I don’t think this was fair, they have the lights set to change very quickly to increase the number of fines. I think this is just a method of bringing in revenue and a very dishonest one at that. Well Lakeland if I get the ticket I will pay it, all $158 of it, but that’ll be the last time you’ll get any money from me. I will NOT go through Lakeland again, I will not shop, eat, sight see, or anything else there. I won’t patronize any shops at all in your city (even online), and try to talk anyone else I know of from buying or going there as well. I for one think what you’ve done is dishonest and crooked. I should expect it with your corrupt police force. So Lakeland you’ll the $158 and I hope you feel it’s a victory, because after that YOU CAN SUCK MY DICK!
