Final Tally for "C" town.
144 drove through north and/or south bound
24 were stopped
8 of the 24 paid zero
16 paid as follows
$800ps
$500ps x2
$450ps
$400ps
$300ps x 4 - same person, 4 trips $300ps each time
$200ps x 4
$200dls
$100dls
$50dls
The $800ps and one of the $200ps paid at the station.
So, 16% were stopped and 11% paid.
Of course, there is a 3% error factor!
There were a couple of interesting stories as follows:
a. Although I did drive through Constitution in early May and was
lucky enough to mot be stopped, I did witness something very
interesting. As we drove through in the middle lane, there was a
motorcycle cop going slowly on the right hand feeder street that
parallels the main road going though town. I was certain that if I
passed him in my lane, he would come after me, so I stayed well off
his tail. Two other motorcycles driven by gringos were behind him on
the feeder street that he was on. I then saw him run a stop sign,
and because the gringos were watching him, they missed the stop sign
and he immediately pulled them over. Looked to me like a
well-rehearsed trick they might use to try to get you to miss a stop
sign.

b. Just arrived 5 days ago, and yes, we drove thru Constitution and
yes $500 pesos was the charge for a "a small infraction
so the officer said. It was a yellow light and we neglected to allow
the pedestrians to cross that were standing on the middle walk way
to the other side.
c. March 3. Paid 500 paso. For not stopping while people walked
along the side of the road - incase they might cross??? We were
never sure
Thank you all...........if anyone thinks of
another topic that might be of interest to most of us, let me
know..........about 2300 inquiring minds might be interested.

=====================================
I received a story about the new Pemex in Los Barriles and to
paraphrase, an attendant played the old bait and switch trick with a
$50 dollar bill. They did get the 50 back but be careful and that
goes for any establishment.
===========================================

===========================
Humboldt squid for bait: We heard through the rumor mill via a
meeting at Palmas that the catching of Humboldt squid is now
prohibited.
Can anyone elaborate on or verify this? Mary & Buzz.
bm@fedorka.com and post on
BPE.
===============================
I was told to have my FM3 stamped in the city I was leaving before
driving to the border. Immigration in La Paz told me they would not
stamp my FM3, that I didn't need to have it stamped. I stopped in
Ensenada at Immigration. They told me they do not stamp FM3's for
people leaving the country. They suggested I have it done at the
border. I said that I could not have it stamped at the border
because the Immigration Office was on the other side of the highway.
They said I could go out to the United States, and come back in,
have the FM3 stamped and go out again. No solution.
===================================
HELP! We need new homes! Our owner rescued us but now is moving to a
smaller house in LaPaz and can't take all of us with her. Rosenda is
a 6 month old long hair terrier mix, black, spayed. Puka is 11
months, also black, spayed, short hair medium dog. We also have 3
kittens, 4 months old, 2 striped and 1 calico.
My name is Remi. I am a 4 month old, spayed female, also needing a
home. I love to play with the big dogs and think I'm one of them.
