I recently received a citation in your town for improper seat belt use. I had my seatbelt on but it was rubbing on my neck so I put the shoulder belt under my arm. I did not know that was a violation that I could get a citation for. ... It would have been nice to have received a warning and been told to have a ‘nice day,’ and to come back again. I often spend the night in Tucumcari on my way from Arizona to the Midwest. On this trip, I spent $45 at the Travelodge Motel, $20 at Dell’s Restaurant, $20 for gas at the Circle K and $15 at K-Bob’s. However, after this experience I will in the future plan my overnight stay in Amarillo or Santa Rosa and I will tell my friends to do the same. Eugene Knoll Phoenix
