Beware the Belle PD is not allowed to run radar or patrol US Rt. 60. If you get a citation please take it to the mayor.

That is not true. There is a section of US Rt. 60 inside the city limits of Belle. Just because the officers of this department do not work Rt 60 does not mean they can't enforce state code on that section of road way. I dont know how far I would push that fact. Also, FYI, taking a citation to the mayor because you were cited for a violation that occured on Rt 60 does not mean your ticket will be dropped or dismissed. The mayor can Not limit where an officer can or can not enforce state code as long as its in the city (this would be obstructing justice an arrestable offense, and yes mayors have been arrested for obstructing in the past), but they can ask that an area not be a target work area.. Take it how you want, but don't think you'll get out of something just because you're on Rt. 60.
