It's a moneymaker, mainly. You can drive for three hours on I 96 in MI and see three cops, at MOST, and lots of times only one. The speed limit is 70, but as long as you're not much over 75 and not driving recklessly, they don't care. Driving south, once you hit GA, they're all over the place. Carolina's too.
I went to college in the south. It was true in the '60s too. And heaven help you if you're going two miles over the limit. It's a cash cow.
