But in the city, most people take the interstate highway signs for speed limit ones. That's more like it! I think bob lives in the sticks somewhere. That may be the difference. Them hicks have to grab what they can get.

That holds true all over Atlanta, except for UNION...just after the airport. I got a ticket there for going 80...I didn't argue, I was going 80 but so was everyone else. How are you suppose to know what the speed limit is when it isn't posted, and everyone decides their own speed? Since I got my ticket, I've talked to four people who also were awarded a ticket in UNION...including the boy at Publix who was filling out my certified check for the Union police Dept. for $250! It wouldn't have bothered me, but I wasn't in the fast lane, and everyone was passing me...I think it was a case of I was the one who stopped.. Since then I always slow down after the airport, and always see a cop writing a ticket. Do you know anything about UNION? It must be the richest one horse town in Georgia.
