I-95 and 58 ten miles around Emporia

Emporia, Virginia•Mar 12, 2010•2 Comments

I am a county resident of Greensville county, live 7 miles outside of city limits. Only been ticketed once by a trooper out in county. But believe me, it burns me up to see city police and sheriff’s deputies out on 95-instead of patrolling their city or county. Believe me everything you read here, most of time you will find 2 city, 2 county and 2 troopers on north side of Emporia at same time, most of the time. Anywhere in and around Emporia is heavy. I hate to say don’t even stop, but that’s you best course. Sadler oil owns most of gas stations and around interstate gas is 10-15 cents higher than going 1/4 mile off interstate. So motorist are subject to getting screwed all the way around.

Interstate Hiways are funded and maintained by the Federal & State governments, so that should preclude the local (City/County) Law Enforcement Officers from using Radar on I-Rts. The only authority on I-Rts should be State Troopers?? Advise, Please --

A friend of mine was a substitute judge in Emporia and stated the town would go bankrupt if the town police were not allowed on I-95. Town cops are paid overtime to work speedtraps on the interstate and annually bring millions into the town cofers. Drivers Beware!!!! From the Greensville County line all the way through Emporia to the N.C. line, You will generally find revenue producers at every cut through...
