The "30 minutes or it's free" pizza guys. These guys are terrible for going around the gates, And bad news for him now, there are Two seperate police forces that can guve hium a ticket for going around RR gates. The Regaular town Police force, or The CPR Police, they now have the ability to give out tickets. Last time they did, they were parkes at the side of the crossing in a Red honda Civic.. pretty discreet I think, And trust me, thats a whopper of a fine.
