Hwy 17

Anywhere in this town, cops have nothing better to do. I was “clocked” doing 65 in a 45. My cruise was set at 60 (in 55). Went to court and, surprise!, three other people there doing exactly 65 in 45. Coincidence? I think not. They did me a “favor” and reduced it to 59 but still charged $375! I’m 60 years old and never had a ticket but with out-of-county plates and driving a Camaro SS, I was definitely a target.

There is a small stretch of road in Rocky Ford that the speed changes from 55 to 45 and only goes for about 500 yards…I just got the amount of the ticket that the officer claims he reduced my speed and it was $375.00.

Wow…I haven’t had a ticket in years but this definitely will make me slow down and NEVER visit Screven County again.

Warning…Watch this SPEED TRAP on Highway 17

On highway 17 city limits

Just recently officers from Rocky Ford PD set up @ the city limits sign and wrote my father a ticket for sppeding in a 35 construction zone. The officer wrote him for the speed he was doing in a normaly 55 zone not in the city limits as we live near there and are well aware of the integrity of these officers, I spoke with GDOT and the signs lowering the speed limit were orange and black advisory signs not enforceable. Just wanted to provide this info the anyone that got a ticket during this time, there was no construction going on it was finished. Not to mention they write the tickets based on what they clock you doing outside the city limits 45 zone. We are intending on persuing this futher. This is outright highway robbery with a badge.

Officers from the city PD. will sit at this intersection and target any vehicle with out of county tags. If you are not from the State…….you are doomed, as they know you will not appear to fight the summons. The city depends on these tickets to balance their budget. Be sure to have a video camera, or cell phone and document the whole stop as they frequently violate the 4th amendment. You will need the proof. Trust me !!

Hwy 17 & Cr 237 at caution light

This stretch of Hwy 17 has essentially zero traffic and barely nicks the outskirts of the town proper — I never saw any evidence of a town. The intersection w/caution light is at the bottom of a steep hill and positioned such that it is almost impossible to adequately slow down to exactly 45mph (or much slower if you have a Florida tag) without jamming on brakes. Police are typically stationed side-by-side facing both directions on Hwy 17. Also worth mentioning: The mailing address of the Rocky Ford City Hall and Police Department is P.O. Box 1 and their office hours are 4PM-6PM.
