Public Servants? 2
Don’t call the cops in Radnor, Pa. A private detective at $150 an hour would be cheaper:
The Radnor officers advised West not to report the accident to her auto insurer, since only the car’s side mirror had been damaged. What they did not mention was that they would report the crash to Cost Recovery Corp., a Dayton, Ohio, firm that helps municipalities recoup the cost of police and fire department services.

In April, Radnor enacted an ordinance requiring non-residents to pay for police services at traffic accidents. Since then, the township has been inundated with complaints that the collection agency overstepped its bounds and that Radnor police lied to motorists about having to pay the bills.

Have they given up on the speed traps?

In Radnor, there’s so much traffic that speed traps would be a waste of time.
It’s right in the middle of the Main Line.
