City Police hide in driveways and at the bottom of hills. Speed limit is 35 with just cow pastures and hay bales on either side of the road. It was the first time I’d EVER been on the road, having just moved to Claremore 3 days before and was unfamiliar with the road and the speed limit. They know people on their way to work use SouthHaven road as a shortcut to avoid the stoplights and all the trains. The cop didn’t tell me, AS HE SHOULD HAVE! that I couldn’t pay my fine with a personal check. I dropped off my check before city hall opened, and because I’d left a check and not cold, hard cash, a BENCH WARRANT was issued for my arrest and an extra $10 bucks was added! City hall people were hateful on the phone. Thanks – what a nice welcome to Claremore!
