We have a number of roads where 45 was considered sensible for years.
Then one day the county put up shiny new 35 mph signs. Can you make the
distinction between 35 and 40? If not, the county deputies are standing
by to help you.


If it was sensible then, it's sensible now.

I suppose you don't scan your mirrors either?


No, I don't have tunnel vision. I can see the police car in the mirror out of the corner of my eye, and then I look at the speedo.
