(Photo taken moments ago) The Lakewood Scoop is getting numerous reports about the checkpoint at the Lakewood-Howell border (right before Valero gas station). The checkpoint, closing off one lane with cones, only allowing a single lane by, was set up by the Howell Police Department. There is a cop standing on the road checking each and every car's registration. Although the click-it campaign is over, the law remains in effect. If your car registration is not up to date, you can get your car towed. (And yes, if you're passing the checkpoint talking on your hanheld, you will also get ticketed).Thank you YP, CM, Chaim S, TLS-23 and others.

I don't think there is a more Anti-Semitic PD in our area then Howell PD. From their entire stretch of Route 9 the spot they chose to hit is right on the Lakewood border!They prove themselves over and over. I know of many incidents of blatant Anti-Semitism with them. I think pretty much any Lakewood resident will agree.
I do not think it is anti semitism. It is just a way for Howell to make a buck.It all comes down to money. Lakewood would do the same but they get you on the property tax so they could ease off the ticket blitz. Howell has a very nice source of income from all the tickets they give out. Maybe our property taxes would go down if Lakewood would be as agressive. Is that what you want?
I think the LPD should also set up their checkpoint on the Lakewood-Howell border at the same time as the HPD is doing theirs.. This way you can kill 2 birds at one time..

If you're right on what you say,then let Lakewood do the same. Maybe people will just start obeying traffic laws. Property taxes is something we can't do anything about,driving is something we are capable of fixing.
How is it Anti-Semitic to give smeone a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt when they weren't wearing a seatbelt?
It is not at all Anti-Semitic to give a ticket.It is Anti-Semitic to deliberately target the Jewish areas as they always do. The Howell cops will look for every opportunity to make life for neighboring Lakewooders miserable.
these guys are clearly antisemites and fundraising for howell. attention howelL, YOU ALREADY LOST YOUR MERIT BY LOSING THE TOMCHEI SHABBOS ORGANIZATION WHO HAS SINCE MOVED TO LAKEWOOD , PLEASE LEAVE US ALONE . THE JEWISH PEOPLE HAVE SUFFERED ENOUGH!
You can avoid these guys by traveling countyline road to kent road and make rt by walmart
The anti semitism in Howell is geferlach. Just last week I tried to get on a NJ Transit bus in Howell and the driver threw me off the bus for not paying the fare. Theres no question that the driver was a terrible anti semite and influenced by Obama.
RJ.
I hope you were kidding.
Next time pay the fare and he will let you in. HA!
county line rd. going west was very backed up around 3:00 PM. Does that have anything to do with the lane closure on rte 9?
It wouldn't really matter if the checkpoint was set up on the howell-lakewood or howell-freehold border. you would have the basically the same number of jews passing through route 9. not sure how placing it at howell-lakewood brder makes this antisemetic. Stop being so paranoid.
Howell cops are Anti-Semites,PERIOD. The ones doubting it on this blog must me newcomers to Lakewood. I don't want to bore anyone but there are too many stories with Howell PD to enumerate.
oh!so your supposed to be nice and cozy here in galus! wake up and relise whats going on maybe moshiach will come then after you do teshuva,denial wont get you anywhere
Your all nuts, what’s wrong with us Jews thinking that every time the police do something and it has an ill effect on us its automatically anti-Semitic. The demographics around Lakewood is mostly Jewish or Hispanic. Should the cops stop enforcing the law to not look anti-Semitic? Oh wait maybe their also racist against the Hispanics because they get the tickets to. Every time you write that the cops are anti-Semitic on this web site you probably get them to dislike us, they read this web site. So grow up obey the law and stop acting like whining school girls and realize not everything is about you being Jewish.
I have been living in Lakewood for 20 yrs. I never got a ticket on rt 9 in howell! I only once got tickets on Squankum. I was Speeding (75), no Insurance card in the car, forgot to re-register the car, so had no registration, Expired Inspection. The Howell Cop did not tow my car, and didn't give me a speeding ticket! (I got 3 tickets but was thankful!) To all of you that think they are anti-semitic, STOP BREAKING THE LAW AND YOU WONT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THEM! they dont look to give tickets for nothing.
the Howell police are not Anti-Semites because some of us are not driving our vehicles in a safe and proper manner, keep your registration up to date, maintain your cars, drive safely and courteously and make sure you and your children are wearing your seatbelts, its comments like the ones posted that have the Lakewood cops afraid to ticket our kind for fear of being called such things, i wish they would because some of us drive like the road belongs to them and they can do as they please
