Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Speeding ticket frenzies... Just what we need...

[Britt2Asa (Britt2Asa]

I was thinking the same thing. SNOPES is an urban legends site. If you read  
the website you see the same fake warning has been around for years. that's 
the  point of the site, it is all BS!

(If you want REAL speed cameras then come on over here! Average speed  
cameras over 6 miles, digital speed cameras, regular speed cameras, cameras 
that  
ticket you for improper parking, conjestion cameras and now they have just  
announced lowering the speed limit on normal roads to 50 mph from 60 mph)
 
You don't know how lucky you have it in the USA....if you think it can't  get 
any worse then have a quick holiday in the UK and you will find out it  can!
 
 

Unless I  completely misunderstand, isn't the point of the linked Snopes 
article that  the story about stepped up enforcement in NJ (as well as other 
jurisdictions  where similar stories have popped up) is bogus?





In any  event, I will be driving my minivan (alas) from Philadelphia to 
Nawlins (and  back) the second week of May, intending to stay on major highways 
(e.g., 81)  except for a couple of short detours for interesting food.  I'll 
try 
to  be vigilent, will have my V1, and won't go over 90, but does anyone know 
of  any jurisdictions, other than VA and DC, where radar detectors are  
illegal?  





Also, can anyone direct me to any  useful sites that facilitate 
identification of worthwhile eateries along a  route?  Most sites, like Zagat, 
require a 
search by location, and I am  currently using Roadfood, but thought there might 
be other  sources?





Thanks,

Larry
