The Ease of Being Stopped

Today I don't have a news item to show you, but a list of people who don't think. The Police Blotter on Cleveland.com gives a list of four people who were stopped and arrested for the easiest reason to stop people: speeding.

The first is a 31 year old woman who was stopped on September 9. She was stopped for speeding, and a breath test revealed a BAC of 0.11%, over the legal limit.

The second one is a 37 year old man who, once again, was speeding (over 50 mph in a 35 mph zone). Once again, he was stopped, took the test, and got a 0.11% BAC. Another potential accident off the road.

The third one is about a 35 year old man who was stopped for speeding. He refused to take the breath test, which means, of course, an admission in drunk driving.

The last one is a 29 year old man from Cleveland who was driving at 67 mph in a 25 mph zone ("just" 42 mph over the limit). This man won't drive a car for a long time.

These four criminals are off the road, but there are thousands more out there. Be careful!
