We know, that is one bold statement we are making...but hear us out. Kristin Leblanc and her lunatic friends at opposecampton LOVE to criticize the Campton Hills Police Department for giving speeding tickets. LeBlanc is well known for her arrogance and ignorance when it comes to all things legal. It is said that Kristin has never met a law she will not break. So it comes as no surprise that she and her half wits want the Police to stop enforcing the speed limits in the Village. They have spent more time bitching about speeding tickets than anything else.
So we thought we would educate the masses. Everyone loves statistics, especially when they can save lives. Go to http://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/speedmgt/data_facts/#facts and look at these sobering numbers. Here is a simple excerpt from one of the studies listed:
Speeding is one of the most prevalent factors contributing to traffic crashes. Speeding reduces a driver’s ability to steer safely around curves or objects in the roadway, extends the distance necessary to stop a vehicle, and increases the distance a vehicle travels while a driver reacts to a dangerous situation. Higher crash speeds also reduce the ability of vehicle, restraint system, and roadway hardware such as guardrails, barriers, and impact attenuators to protect vehicle occupants [2-5]. Speeding is a factor in 30 percent of all fatal crashes. About 1,000 fatalities resulted from speeding-related motor vehicle traffic crashes every month.Speeding is a factor in 30% of all fatal automobile accidents. LeBlanc does not want to enforce the law, as she would rather let the speeders "do their thing". Every year new drivers hit the road, feeling invincible and cocky. Every year many of these same teenage drivers are involved in accidents, often as a result of speeding, and tragically resulting in serious injury or death. LeBlanc promotes this with her campaign platform. Shame on you, Kristin! What kind of person runs for public office on the promise to NOT enforce the laws as well as to destroy the very Municipality that she claims she wants to serve?

So to all the Police men and women out there who risk their lives every day to protect us, WE SALUTE YOU AND WE THANK YOU.
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!
