      Source? Is this really a common enough thing, or just an edge case? How much overtime is required? What about the $20-something/hour mentioned in the article?

        This is a problem in Massachusetts, because we require officers for every road construction project, instead of flaggers, but I also thought this was an exception

          The real problem in Massachusetts is that the Staties were getting paid OT for traffic details when they were actually asleep in bed.
