I'm not sure I understand your point, unless you're arguing that national speed limits are deliberately low so that police can fine people driving at the "correct" speed? Or that police lie about your speed and fine you anyway?
- Firehawke 5y agoThe former is definitely true. There are towns out there in the United States that are on an interstate and play games with their speed limits. You'll see a speed limit of 60-70 up until you hit city limits then it suddenly drops to 30-40, with enforcement lined up at the city limits waiting to nab people. They're making good money off of these fines.
- Dma54rhs 5y agoBut why wouldn't you want lower speed inside the city?
- Firehawke 5y agoYou normally would, but this is just predation on through traffic. It's not like you're going through the middle of main street, these may be off to the side of town with several exits but close enough for the city to dictate speed limits.
