Theoretically if people utilized privately owned public transportation, the lesser people on the roads. That translates to less money spent on upkeep for those roads. Less police/ems presence for accidents (etc) needed. All of that IS taxpayer funded.
I’m pretty conservative but public transportation in the states is an absolute joke compared to Europe.

We had the cops come around and tell us a registered sex offender was moving into the neighborhood. He was a couple streets over but still.

I have one by my house that ALWAYS has a state patrolman stationed at (it’s not a weight station it’s a grade warning/runaway truck ramp deal but required to stop and they enforce that). Weigh stations might be different idk believe me though if Pennsylvania taxes it….they WILL get that money.

Well they’re also going to file the toll roads on their taxes. You COULD just inspect the ones getting off certain exits that are expected to be interstate travel 1st, last and whatever is closest to MD/DE. There’s multiple avenues to this, don’t act like it’s impossible.

Similar, I avoid the turnpike just cause it’s expensive. I try to take highways that don’t make me pay.

Right outside Duncannon! I’m near PSU and MUST pass it on the way to Harrisburg area. We look for it every single time. It was originally a prank, got damaged beyond repair and they removed it. People went CRAZY about it being missing…..they made a new one to put up lol. That’s how we roll here.

Ever take 11/15 to NY? The Tioga Reservoir is off to the left and it’s BEAUTIFUL. I know people kayak/fish on it but the shade of blue is just amazing enough for me. Plus it’s all mountains up there.

Oh no there’s a LewisBERG too it’s over by Danville
I’m still in that county just a different “town” of it. Honestly we need a few raids. Police mostly know where things are they just CANT do anything about it cause no one is reporting it or whatever (no reason to investigate).

Close, LewisTOWN area is where I’m from. It’s kinda a shithole if you didn’t know. Kinda big Heroin town, we’ve had a few shootings this year, about a week ago some guy “allegedly” shot his girlfriend in the face after work and dumped her body by a boat access area. It’s semi isolated though a SMALL section of town is ghetto w slum lords owning basically everything. That’s where Shootings are happening for the most part. Stay out when it’s dark kinda thing…..but for the size of our town? That shouldn’t be a thing

Nah that’s what we prefer. Philly and Pitt are about 3 hours from me, Harrisburg area is about an hour, Penn State is half hour, we measure everything that way.

Sounds like you nailed it then. These kinda stories ARE the ones that last though. “Hey Jeb remember when Katie bought you that sex book that one Christmas?” You’ll laugh about it one day anyways.

Reply to comment by Revolutioneerie in Does anyone have any suggestions for NYE festivals? by [deleted]
Growing up in Harrisburg then either I would say strawberry drop in Harrisburg or the kiss drop in Hershey. Unless you’re looking for something bigger.
31spiders t1_iz9zwz7 wrote
It would help if you told us where you are/plan on being because NYC really isn’t that far. There’s local strawberry drop at Harrisburg, Lebanon has the Bologna drop, I think it’s Pittsburgh that has the pickle drop…or are you talking festival like….concert type festival and the drop is kinda secondary?
