North Huntingdon police Sgt. Duane Kucera concedes he took a “little egg on the face” when he erected 19 mph signs on two township streets a year ago and inadvertently violated state and federal regulations requiring speed limits in 5 mph increments. Even though the 20 mph signs are back up on Mockingbird Lane in front of Norwin Intermediate School and on Biddle Avenue In Westmoreland City, Kucera thinks motorists got the message to slow down. He’s had no speeding complaints in more than a year.

Knoxville police have lost red-light cameras to traffic accidents but never to gun play. “This is the first one that’s been shot,” Capt. Gordon Catlett said of the wounded camera at the intersection of Broadway Avenue and Interstate 640 — one of 15 camera-equipped intersections in the city. Clifford E. Clark, 47, was charged with felony vandalism and reckless endangerment for allegedly firing at least three rounds from a .30-06 hunting rifle at the camera, knocking it out of action.

A waste truck leaked poultry fat along 30 kilometres of Virginia roadway today, causing at least four crashes not to mention a stinky mess.

The city does not know exactly why the traffic signals went on the fritz Wednesday, cutting the time that lights stayed green and allowing cars to only trickle through intersections.  “This is a freak incident that happened,” Mani Poola, the city’s traffic engineer, said yesterday. In his 18 years in Stamford, he said he had never seen anything like it.
