I get it. I know and have taken other routes and each has its strong points and weaknesses. Coming thru the Ocala Forest or wherever the hell we were was worse than 301 for me. I am a patient and kind driver and ALWAYS give the other person every break I can. My thought was with all the planning and money that went into putting that stretch of road into such fine condition why oh why the speed limits posted the way they are? If you have never experienced it let me try and save you a few coins because it has to be a setup to deal out tickets. What other reason could there be? Poor planning or execution. 65 to 45 to 50 t0 60 to 64 all in the space of a mile, cut me a husk!

I know the other routes are there. If they made this entire stretch 50 MPH that would be a beautiful thing. I'll still use 301 next time. I'm just wondering what my Village brethren could come up with. Overall, NOTHING. Just toughen up and live through it I guess.
