Sorry I didn't think of it sooner.
Be damned sure to go slow and watch ahead for change of speed limit
signs in all those small towns.
Bowie Tex nailed me last yr. Was doing just fine at 40mph, saw a 30mpg sign and slammed on my brakes right then. Wasn't past the sign yet and the SOB right behind me fired up the lights.
Cost me $160!!!!!!!
Guess that's a get even for all the times I jarred them awake with my Jake brake those ten yrs I was trucking thru there.
No matter how long it takes, you gotta pay your dues, they say. Right??
another one down east of there I was smokin at night. Topped a hill and he had one pulled over. I got on the skids and as I went past, he pulled behind me and shut the lights off. Was 11miles to town and he followed along as I just cooled things down about ten under. When a block from the light, he roared past me and the light turned red and stayed that way for no less than ten full minutes. I saw him sneaking around corners a block away waiting on me to go on thru it. Wouldn't be surprised if he was controlling the lite.
Once it changed I went a block to a corner store and got a cold pop and drained it, told a few young kids to watch it, he was huntin me. Just barely got pulled out of the lot and he nailed one of them a block up the hwy. Wasn't a mile down the road and I saw one sittin in the bushes plannin on ambushin me. Only ticket I've gotten in over 20yrs.
Fair warning, take it easy, you think gas is high, just get a speedin ticket in a hick town like Bowie Tex.
