Is Fenton still majority black?

Also why would anyone need to go through Fenton? Its 165 not I10

But yes I agree speed traps are awful displays of policing. During that time of month I see more people who probably rarely speed or barely move the needle past profitable level by accident or not come to a complete stop at stop sign get tickets by cops waiting for the mistake they make while drag races occur nightly if not a few during the day.

Washington on i49 used to be bad with this towards out of state drivers.

Speeding is about $170 in St Gabriel. Go to the kangaroo court and tell them you don't want it on your record and it becomes a non moving violation.

Based on this article we need some unemployed attorney to go to Fenton, and just drag their speeding ticket up to the Supreme Court. And I know we have enough unemployed attorneys in this state so what are we waiting on.

A friend of ours got ticketed for running a red light there. Going hunting at 3:30 in the morning. He stopped, nobody coming so he eased on through. He didn't see the police car parked down the side street


Olla has no stoplight. All flashing lights.

At the time it did. This was the "downtown" part, across the tracks from 165.

Nice little city hall you got here. It would be a real shame if something happened to it. A real shame.

Fenton is a shithole. Only good thing is the old man selling satsumas on the south side of town


That old man died earlier this year or last year.

Camping in the left lane? Should've shot your tires out.

You are part of what’s wrong with this country.

Would like to see the numbers on St. Gabriel. They have to be up there, those police sit on Hwy 30 preying on people. ETA: Pretty sure they also run a mayor’s court


Let’s see, the Chiefs son has killed multiple people and the FBI raided his office earlier this year. One of their deputies also murdered someone recently.

They could give NOPD a run for their money….

In Fenton, it’s 92.5%.

The other 7.5 goes in the mayor's pocket

I'm pretty sure the Woodworth city cop even got the google maps streetview guy.

If you got Texas plates running 165 from 10 to Monroe, you probably gonna get pulled over unless you creep through every town doing at least 5 under the speed limit. Monroe to Arkansas gets a little better.

Sounds like most small towns in La. Krotz Springs is bad too. How 18 wheelers go up that bridge having to be at 45
