You are so right VT. We also live near Pinellas Place and speeding is common, although it seems most stay around 35 mph. Morse and Buena Vista are another story altogether. I stay under forty on those two thoroughfares and try to stay at 35. Traffic flies by me regularly. In fact I am almost shocked when someone in front or behind me goes for any length of time at the speed limit. I almost never see sheriffs patrols on those roads and I have an idea they are discouraged from issuing tickets as it might be bad for business. What is everyone in a hurry for?
