Over the long weekend we've been considering the scam-van program and how it's being used. Let's be clear, the STOP program is simply government sponsored and implemented fraud masquerading as a public safety program. What we're wondering is exactly what obligation does the officer in the scam-van have to enforce New Mexico's traffic code?
Let's assume for a moment that officer Salazar from scam-van 1 were monitoring speeds in a "properly marked" speed zone rather than the "improperly marked" zone last June. The scam-van officer witnessed 1306 violations of the New Mexico Traffic Code and handed out exactly ZERO traffic citations.
Now we understand that officers have broad discretion when it comes to enforcing misdemeanor infractions, but if the city weren't out to make a buck then officer Salazar would have at least issued one or two criminal citations. Thanks to the STOP scam, we're paying trained law enforcement officers to run toll booths with orders not to write criminal citations.
Have a look at the scam-van log from June 19, 2007. Besides the numerous misspellings, you'll find that the log seems to meet the standards for issuing a criminal traffic citation - a citation that would have ended up in criminal court where the 1300 plus erroneous citations could have been rectified. (View the log here).

Marty for US Senate !
This is just flat WRONG. 1300 + people got citations they shouldn't have and most of them probably sent in the fine.
Did the city know this before they were sent out or afterwards? If the latter, did the City send them a refund?
This speed trap session was disqualified because of improper sign postings.
Will anyone tell these saps or is the City just going to screw them?
I think we should just be quiet about it & send all of that money to Planned Parenthood for the Holidays.
Lest we for get that the officers running that thing are rehires and have sold out the citizens and other officers to get a cake job, and again the union and the city council lets them slide...way to go. they are basically mercernaries
You'll get over it
Yeah, Litlle Marty's, Little Biatch
Hummmm, must have hit a nerve. Settle down boys, getting all worked up is bad for your file at IA. Try a slightly larger dose of prozac tomorrow, you're still a bit edgy.
Where is the proof or the log?
I agree, get rid of all the unions!
The recipe you are looking for is found in a federal jail cell sitting next the to shorty the circus clown. You two will have plenty of time to make you "banana bread together."
You'll get over it
But will Marty get over losing, again.
The log is on the bottom of the blog, where it says (View the log here)

Ok enough is enough. The State Police are in bed with Ray and Marty this was proven on this web site with the story on Officer Dawne Roberto.

Hey cookie monster,
Here's a recipe.
Read NMSA 30-8-8.1
It basically says you're treated better and have more rights if you run a whore house than if you get a notice go to a red-light camera hearing.
Enjoy...
Oops-
That should read "and go to a red-light camera hearing."
You know I didnt really have too much heartburn with red light cams... then I got popped by the scam van. I showed my kids the ticket and told em' how it sucked but that I was speeding so I had to pay. They thought it was funny since I retired after 23 years at APD and had never gotten cited for anything in their entire lifetimes. In my heart I knew that there was no cop that would have written me that ticket since I had actually just been passed on the right by a faster driver when it caught me. About a week later I went thru that area again and started checking the speed limit signs. Turns out it IS a 45 MPH zone there (on Coors) and so I had paid $100 for 4 MPH over the limit or $25 a mile. That was so obscene to me and will never have any effect on a really bad driver, just pisses off old farts like me who are trying to negotiate traffic in a safe and prudent manner.
You'll get over it
Frankly I don't get over much that is WRONG, which is why I may take awhile to "get over" your administration. Your comments remind me of the Vichy French, puppets who come to the call of a tyrant & should know that he has no love for them. Merely a useful pawn, lining their own pockets at the expense of their brethren. In the end history will repeat itself with your kind.
You'll get over it
Albuquerque City government and Bernalillo County goverment need a massive enema applied to rid both of the corrupt, incompetant officials who are mismanaging the system. Fire them all and have a new election!!! The results can't be any worse then the current situation.
you know Im trying to be non confrontational here but if Im ever talking to anyone about this site and they admit they are the guy who posts "Youll get over it" Im going to smack em' right in the mouth.
