You fight back with your wallet.

I am planning a trip this summer up Historic 441 and it will go right through Ocala, now I am going to jump on the Turnpike for a while and bypass the town and its speedtraps.

I was pulled over just outside of Arcadia Florida in a speed trap by plane. Now when I travel across the state I use other routes and will not go through Arcadia, therefore not spending my money in their town anymore.

I used to stop off in Georgia when I travel to North Carolina, since being nailed in a speed trap and seeing countless others I plan my refueling and my hotel stays so I do not give Georgia my business anymore.

Its easy for me to do this and if more people that travel around and spend money would abopt this attittude businesses would feel the affect of their "protect and serve" police force and cry for them to stop harrassing us.
