Photo Enforcement? part 2

This morning I drove out to the scene of where I got my ticket by camera described in the previous blog... the question being in regards to the school zone lights flashing...

The ticket had said that it was 10:31am and my thought had been that wasn't when school would be starting or ending, so seriously... would the lights be flashing? Well, to my surprise, the school zone lights did indeed begin to flash right at 10:30am, even though there was no school activity occuring at or near the school zone that I could detect! The video is what I captured just after the lights began flashing.

So is this Bellevue's way of making some money? Must be! Pretty smart for them, bad for all the drivers that passed, not heeding the 20mph speed limit when the lights are flashing!!

Thoughts?

  1. Hello. I am sorry to hear about your recent traffic ticket. However, I wanted to ask you a question that I like to ask all authors that I meet: What books have you read recently, and which would you recommend most strongly for aspiring authors (and why)?

  2. Hi George! The last book I read was Sela Ward's memoir. Not something I would have purchased and read, but it was at the hotel where I work and I wanted something to read on my breaks... prior to that, I read "Duma Key" by Stephen King. What I recommend to do is read your favorites, and also read outside your comfort zone, different authors... that gives you good exposure to a wide range of different styles and formats and all...
    For the longest time all I read was King and Koontz, as they are my favorites. Then I started to read other genres and authors and it was actually refreshing!
    What have you written? Let me know!
