Interstate 95 near Exit Number 79
Officers from the VA State Police, Henrico County and Richmond City are on a ticket-writing blitz. I-95 from Parham Road to Bells Road (about fifteen miles of the road) has been declared a "highway safety corridor" as of January 7th, 2005. Fines will be as high as $500 for speeding and $2500 for DUI or reckless operation! The speed limit is posted (too low) at 55 mph — and they really are enforcing it. To be fair, however, it has been put out across the media and signs are posted as a warning to all. This action comes as a result of an unusually high number of crashes in recent months. Speed is not always the culprit, however, as most people here just can’t drive very well. Too bad they are not ticketing "left lane hogs" or people who do not use their signals when making lane changes.
