Musician Alice Cooper was caught on video driving 59 mph in a 45-mph zone in May, the Scottsdale Police Department confirmed Monday with the release of four images snapped by photo-enforcement cameras.
Nice of them to release mugshots for speeding now.

I suppose the irony of the whole thing is that as the cameras get better, the same cops who talk about how great traffic cameras are will be laid off and replaced by the very cameras they sold the public on accepting. No, they will be put to work cleaning up the crime in Chicago in prep for 2016 Olympics. Then after Olympics, the chump taxpayers in Chicago and Cook County will have to pony up with extra taxes to pay for all the underfunded Olympic infrastructure.

You don't really believe that Chicago taxpayers will pay a dime for the Olympics, do you? Perhaps you didn't notice that Michelle Obama is leading the charge to get the olympics for her beloved town. You can bet there will be lots of stimulus monty flowing to IL to pay for the new infrastructure. It may be hidden money, but it will be there. The Obamas will bring home the bacon--you can count on it.

That's a joke. Olympics is about sports and love of country. Best representatives would be former Cub, Ernie Banks or former Bull, Michael Jordan or former Bear, Mike Ditka or current White Soxer, AJ Pierzinski, of last Chicago World Series. Maybe Chicago can deploy many hundreds of photo radar, red light cameras to pay for Olympics infrastructure.

Good job! I love how smoothly you blended that photo radar comment in to keep it on topic! While sports personalities might help win the olympics for Chicago, Michelle will make sure the US taxpayers subsidize the whole thing (and leave behind lots of cool new office space for ACORN and other lefty groups). Do you think that if Michael Jordan got a photo radar ticket he would sign it for the judge? What would be worth more, the photo radar fine or the signed ticket?

Olympics is about sports
Judging by the lobbying of the IOC, it's about the money, with sports being an afterthought.
Photo radar companies don't lobby either.

First when you sight something like this please realise you don't know all of the facts. you were trying to prove a point of "speed kills" well if you are as knowledgable as you think you are you should know this doesn't have all the facts. Reason i'm replying to this is because my brother was the driver, yes speed was a factor but it was becaused he stroked out while driving. If you know about strokes you lose control of one side of your body. So his foot was literally stuck on the gas pedal. So you're point of kids thrill-seeking is not true in this statement. Also next time you try to prove a point when using an article like this make sure you know you're going to piss people off who was related to that person
