Since moving here I rarely speed excessively like I used to. 5 m.p.h is my limit and I'm constantly being passed on Buena Vista and Paige Place by folks likely traveling 45-50 in a 35 zone. I've become familiar with where the deputies typically set up and make sure not to go flying by those areas. I also do not think folks know that when entering Spanish Springs from the bridge over Lake Mira Mar the speed limit is 10 m.p.h. Lady Lake PD sets up radar stops there every few months and often just hands out warnings. But I have seen several cars traveling at a dangerous speed into the square on that road. Too many pedestrians, and you're looking at a big fine even if your just going 35.
Now out on the Interstate and Turnpike is a different story. For my own a safety I travel nearly 80 m.p.h. most road trips because if you try to do the speed limit on I-75 you are likely to get run over.
