Where Are The Cops
 
Was driving on EL Camino this morning, doing my 35mph and a SUV passed me doing at least 70mph. Bet if I was doing 40mph a cop would have shown up.

You take your chances at speeding or u do the speed limit. It depends on what's more important to u.

Don't worry, sooner or later they'll get caught.

I bet we have all done it one time or another in our lifetimes.

I rarely see police in TV. Only twice have I seen radar in the years we have been here. Surely, they give you 5 mph----no? I just figured they were out solving "real" crimes. This is what I use to tell my first cousin who was a State Trooper in Illinois. "Unless it is you Jim", I give them 10mph, he told me! I always wonder what he meant by that?

Really, rarely see police in TV? I guess they must follow me around....I see them all the time. Thank goodness I don't like to go too fast in TV.

Trust me they run radar everywhere. Everyday. They must lead the state in radar issued tickets.

Where are they?

travelguy 01-25-2013 05:36 PM

they are on 466A in Fruitland Park. Nearly everyone I know has had one traffic ticket on that stretch of road since moving to The Villages. Another place for speed traps are Micro-Racetrack Road and Rolling Acres. It is posted 35 and believe me they will pick you off if you go anything over that speed.
