The whole nation could be a speed trap

NMA says a speed trap is where “the speed limit is grossly underposted and universally ignored. Traffic is moving safely and expeditiously, but not legally. … As fast as the pen can be applied to paper, driver after driver is issued a speeding ticket that results in exorbitant fines, points on their driver’s licenses and insurance surcharges.” The NMA, established 25 years ago to fight the 55-m.p.h. speed limit that was lifted in 1995, “believes in freedom and responsibility to make choices, not in ‘one size fits all’ legislation, ticket cameras, unfair driving taxes, revenue-motivated traffic courts and speed traps.”
