Don't speed on the New York Through-way

Every 20 miles they have a smokey with lights on with some poor chump getting a ticket. Unfortunatly I was one of them. I am not exagerating with the every twenty miles. I used my trip mileage to check it out and it was like clock work. They use Laser, radar and had two state patrol aircraft timing cars that speed. They are no Joke. My $18.00 in tolls got a bit heavier with the ticket. I was only doing 80mph luckily he didn't get me coming over the mountians with "a bit more speed under the wheels"

Those would have helped me but there are some guys that get a ticket and a picture from from the State Police plane. K40 can't avoid that one.
What do the integrated systems like the k40 and the otheres you have cost?
