NW 410 Castle Hills Banco Rd Exit Loop near Exit Number 19B
In San Antonio Texas the city ring road or loop, like most US cities is mostly 60 and 65 MPH. On the northern leg lies one of several little independent boroughs?. Anyway these are cash strapped and any of them can and do select fat motorists for extra cash.
The actual average speed on the Loop is between 55 and 75 MPH.
On the northern east-west-east leg of the loop lies Castle Hills, and the exit lanes off of US Loop 410, at Blanco Rd, belongs to them, ie exit 19B, which is posted 40MPH, but you cannot hardly see the sign as you exit – heavy traffic usualy. The exit is about half a mile long, and the cops sit in their cars in the usualy empty businesses that populate the side road. I guess traffic extorion IS one of the few paying businesses they have? Who knows.
Anyway they are into my pocket for $435.00.
I was behind a truck and SUV travelling way faster than me but the officer jumped me not the other drivers. He alleges I was doing 67 mph, yup speeding off the almost maxed out 6 lanes highway, sure.
