Hi Bogie Shooter: In that I agree...work zone can be hazardous... but my reference is intended to cover the the driver going 40 mph in the left hand lane on interstates or the guy trying to maintain a 25mph on Morse. Heck most cars can maintain that speed with the driver's foot off the accelerator.

Succintly stated I believe highway officers reduce their public relations element when they establish speed traps and quotas, especially when they themselves are caught speeding DUI, etc. In othewrwords its the hypocrisy of it that grabs me. But I understand it and abide by the rules of the road.
