Route 31 Heading West to Yellowstone

Manderson, WyomingJul 21, 20210 Comments

As others have described I was passing through towing a TT on my way to Yellowstone. As the speed went from 70 to 40 to 30 I rolled past a cop sitting in Manderson Main Street waiting. I was busy looking at my GPS to find the next turn which was in a few hundred feet and with a line of RVs behind me all riding my butt because I was going too slowly (for them)

Copy pulls out right behind me and pulls me over. I figure once I explain he’ll understand but nope. It was like speaking to a ticket robot. I have (had) a spotless driving record, I was polite, apologetic, but nothing would get in the way of this Manderason cop and another $167 in ticket revenue for the town (where does all that money go?)

He “clocked” me doing 41 in a 30 despite the 40 zone just ending and me doing my best to slow my rig and prepare for turn. I highly doubtful his report was accurate but clearly they have a system setup to make it almost impossible to stay compliant.

This is a racket, pure and simple.
