Pennsylvania Business Owner Uses Letter Board to Alert Drivers of Police Presence: “Slow Down… The Cop Hides Behind This Sign”

A Pennsylvania deli owner is looking out for speeding drivers!

Pam Wheat, the owner of PJ’s Deli in Bridgeville, Pennsylvania, is using the restaurant’s letter board to alert drivers to pump the brakes because cops are lurking.

“Slow down… The cop hides behind this sign,” the sign says.

“It was put up as a joke, and they came and parked a cruiser behind the sign and took their own picture,” Wheat said.

“We see accidents almost daily on our corner because it’s a bad intersection,” Wheat said. “But they do not use my property to hide, so you can let that secret out of the bag.”

Ironically, the Bridgeville Police Department found ‘heads up’ amusing and posted a picture of the sign on its Facebook page.

“Well…I guess the jokes on us,” the caption of the photo says. “Good one PJ’s Deli!!”

Chad King, a Bridgeville Police Chief, thinks that the sign is great.

“I thought this was great because it shows we can laugh at ourselves,” King said.
