Is anyone else sick of hearing how the elected & appointed officials in Pa. rub our noses in it every day with some new criminal activity ??? FUMO, VEON, GIGLIOTTI, etc, etc,...The list is too long....People being indicted, arrested & stealing our money ....Now we find out our Gov's been breakin' the law speedin' along our highways for years, averaging close to 100 miles an hour... 100 !!
THEN, when he's questioned about it by a reporter, he says he just sits in the back seat & the driver ( a state trooper no less ) takes him everywhere...says he didn't really know they were going that fast...Believe me, whether you're sitting in the back seat, the front seat or the trunk, you know if you're going 100 mph....THEN, he actually tried to blame it on the media....THEN, meant as a way of punishing everyone for daring to question him, he says because of this ridiculous media coverage, he won't run for any more public offices....Hey Gov, can you put that in writing, have it witnessed & notarized ???

I remember hearing about this story several years ago. If his driver is still exceeding the speed limit I would hope he'd remember what happened to Gov. Corzine and slow down.

One question. How can one possibly AVERAGE 100 mph? Maybe he maxed around 100 MPH, but averaging? It is impossible. When I drive the turnpike and I try to do 100 I can't, because the cars in the fast lane do like 75 at max.

I'd just pray that speeding is the least of Fast Eddie's crimes.

It really depends upon the day of the week and the time of day. For whatever reason, I've found the best days to really move on the PATP are Wednesdays and Thursdays, between 10:30 AM and 3:30 PM and during the overnight between 2 AM and 4 AM.

I seriously don't look to go 100, but I usually find myself zipping along at these times with no obstructions, except through the construction areas.

Don't you mean "most" or do you want Fast Eddie to wind up like Cor-slime?

I got a ticket on the turnpike duing 95 mph. The cop lowered it down to 72. He was a nice guy, or I would have lost my license.
