Figures obtained by the Call newspaper frpatagonia better sweater fleece vest - women'som the Administrative Office patagonia better sweater largeof Pennsylvania courts show traffic citations down 22% statewide from last September to this September.
In our region, the drop in tickets is even more pronounced, especially in counties where interstate highways are the busiest roads.

the Eric Frein search take priority over traffic enforcement? asks former State Trooper Ray Hayes. in this case, I woupatagonia everlong review of literature1ld say yes. is the head of campus security at Keystone College, and as a former officer in the state police, he understands the apparent shift from traffic enforcement to finding Frein.
think the public would be somewhat upset with that if that became the priority rather than seeking justice and bringing Eric Frein to justice, added Hayes.

That said, I think distracted driving is way worse than speeding any day and that never been a focus of tpatagonia guide jacket 6-9he PSP.
