Do as I say, not as I do, Part 2

Days after Gov. Jon Corzine nearly got himself killed by not wearing his seatbelt when the state trooper driving his SUV crashed near Atlantic City, the New Jersey State Police launched a major crackdown on drivers who don't wear their seatbelts.

Now just days after the state trooper who was driving Corzine was allowed back on the job, despite being blamed for the 90-plus-mile-an-hour crash, state troopers are launching a major crackdown on speeders:

One wonders if they'll dare to pull over and ticket a speeding gubernatorial motorcade? Well, of course not.

TRENTON (AP) - Motorists who exceed the speed limit can expect to get a ticket in seven north Jersey towns this summer.
Starting July 4, police will target motorists who treat the speed limit as a suggestion and not the law.
"Obey the Signs or Pay the Fines" grants will pay for about 80 hours of overtime in participating police departments. Instead of warnings, speeders will receive tickets ranging from $85 to $260 and points against their licenses.
Four counties that launched the program last year issued nearly 6,400 tickets during the one-month period.
Some police departments in Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Morris, Passaic, Sussex and Warren counties are participating this year
