I am a regularly on this interstate. I have NO idea what the speed limits are (it’s posted at 55 mph). You have to drive at 70 to keep up (I guess the theory goes that this road is close to the big city…New York that the speeds have to be kept at 55, when in reality it passes through what appears to be a pretty rural area all the way to White Plains and the traffic is pretty sparse except on weekends when the traps are really active, what with all the rich New Yorkers going to their homes in the country!). The police (state) are out there constantly with their traps (sometimes three police cars handle the large volume). It’s very frustrating as you simply have NO idea what the speed limits actually are. With the great discrepency between the posted speed and the actual speed the police can be completely arbitrary and still fulfill their quotas (I was told by a freind and former police officer that the State Police do not have strict quotas, but woe to the officer that doesn’t produce at least 6 tickets per shiFort He also told me that most of these officers sign up for doing "real police" and find that after 5 or 6 years they are so bummed out the daily routine of soley handing out tickets, they have a tendency to get really nasty). They also do construction on this road with their double fines! This type patroling makes a mockery of the law.
