What I don't get is how large cities don't pull people over.
You go any speed over 5 over here... you get a ticket and its always over 100 bucks.
Population of largest city in the county: 8000
Population of my village in the county: 550
I do get why people don't get pulled over on highways like Indy or St. Louis... 1 thing.. No place for cops to hide
theres no place for a cop to park his car to scan people because when you have a concrete devider on one side and another on the other side, its kinda hard to catch people off guard with the radar gun.
Here, every half mile there's a country road for a cop to sit and hide behind the trees to get people's speeds. You don't have that in big city highways.
My cousin got pulled over for doing 67 in a 55. which comparing to large cities no where near as fast as they travel
Safety here with speeds isn't an issue, you have a greater chance of hitting a deer than another car.
Its just the cops trying to meet their stations expectations, not that you were endangering other drivers.
The biggest traffic jam we have is when I'm driving 45 in a 55, and when its clear for other drivers to pass, I just use the rear wiper to signal its clear. I Think its catching on
