I mean he/she can go to Morse, Odell, or even StillWater where (I think) the speed is 25MPH and pick up all the speeders he/she and the courts can handle.

Caution should always be key word but I would find it difficult to observe when golf carts go zipping by at 19.5 or faster! ..I think it was handled very professionaly without making a big deal out of it! The Offcier was doing his/her job and got the message accross to local residents
I agree that the officer handled it professionally. I think the 15 mph is reasonable on neighborhood streets, but like many others, I did not realize that was the case. It's good to know.
