State Highway 45 near Interstate 55
City officer sits at intersection by State Hwy. Posted speed limit is 65 mph except thru several small towns. I never saw a sign reducing speed limit to 55 mph or warning of speed reduction ahead. Two cars with Arkansas plates I was following must have missed it also because they didn’t slow down and my friend following behind me in a rental car with AR plates said the last speed limit sign he saw indicated 65 mph. The cop pulled out, ignored my friend following behind me with AR plates, and proceeded to pull me over. When I called the next day, cop shop indicated ticket was $140 after the $10 credit for having my seetbelt on. Mailed cashier’s check which they returned. Guess they didn’t like my comment on the ticket about a "cheesy small town scam". Told me the ticket was now $145. Talk about an abuse of power and extortion!
