Pulaski County – On Interstate #57
Mound City, Illinois in Pulaski County is the dirtiest, economically depressed piece of garbage town I have ever witnessed. From 70 MPH to 55 instantly. Not a single worker present anywhere for miles before & after. A fake construction zone is what they have going on. Absolutely incredible the scam that is going on here. Had cars pulled over all over the place. My very arrogant police officer was #250. Said he clocked me 70 in a 55. If I would have slowed down when I saw the only sign, a Semi would have rear ended me. This arrogant police officer said I had no choice than to appear in their Kangaroo court.
I had to drive over 325 miles to appear. There were over 400 people in court with traffic tickets in the same construction zone, where there is no construction. My cost was $825.00. If you pay the court $100 extra they will not turn you in so you get points. I saw folks having to pay in excess of a $1000 today. Illinois corruption at it’s best. Must have learned it from the Governor of the state. Mound City, Illinois is a dirty little economically depressed city & county & this is what they are doing to cash in. The Courthouse looked like an abandoned school house and was a joke in itself. Will never enter this Pulaski County again. Wish a network program like 20/20 or 48 Hours would investigate this corruption. My advice avoid this scamming area the best you can. You will see many others complaining about this. This scam is their only industry. I see why.
