HItchhiking Delaware 1970

In 1970 coming from a weekend in DC Peter Gore and I were arrested for hitchhiking by a Delaware state trooper on this stretch of I-95. We were fined $25 at the police station and put on a bus to New York. I never paid that ticket, which has probably ballooned with penalties and interest to $1100. That is why I fear Delaware.

Especially the Delaware Welcome Center.

A slice of pizza $7.99.

And no beer.

ps the following year Peter and I also were ticketed once more for hitchhiking in George, Washington by a zealous state trooper. He threw us off the highway and then off the onramp. Peter was standing on a tree stump and a car stopped for us. The trooper pulled over the vehicle and ticketed the three of us.

I never paid that ticket either.
