Monkey Masks: The Best Way To Beat a Traffic Ticket

Speed traps aren’t too bad, right?  They’re just like traffic cops, but friendlier and more likely to ticket white people!  You know who they can’t ticket, though?  People wearing animal masks.

“Our officers actually conducted surveillance on him and observed him putting the mask on just prior to the photo-enforcement zone. So obviously, he intended on speeding through the zone and was covering his face intentionally,” DPS Lieutenant Steve Harrison tells 92.3 KTAR. “He had two masks. One appeared to be [of] a monkey, the other one appeared to be [of] a giraffe or some type of gazelle design.”…

Vontesmar said. “The ball’s in their court. I sent back all these ones I got with a copy of my drivers license, and said, ‘It’s not me. I’m not paying them.’ “

HAHA.  This guy went out of his way to put on a gorilla mask and then pedal to the metal through speed traps.  A true hero of boredom.  And he didn’t do this just once…

Police say Vontesmar is the man behind the mask in at least 37 photo-radar tickets, where the driver can be seen wearing a mask to hide his identity.
