[s-cars] For those in PA: Speed Traps (fwd)

[Marc Gorelick]

This email is a hoax, we just had the same thing go through everyone's 
inbox here in Michigan...only they changed the highways to I-75, I-94, 
etc...the State Police denied the entire thing in the newspaper and 
mentioned that this email had circulated in several other states before 
getting to Michigan.

I'm not suggesting that Pennsylvania is a good place to speed, 
though...BTDT ;-)
