Rico Road
This speed trap is very dangerous on Friday night. My husband was stopped and he was not speeding but was accused of speeding and ticketed and not only ticketed but taken to jail as well. They gave him a breathalyzer which he passed…he blew a .0038 in the field and when they arrested him on suspicion of drunk driving, siezed the truck, took him to the station(my husband is Hispanic, but is a US citizen) and did the test again he blew just under that number at .0035..which no one blows a .000 because your body naturally has alcohol in your stomach and mouth. He told them he wasn´t drinking so now instead they still put him in jail overnight (I guess they were hoping for an ICE hold even though he isn´t illegal) and for speeding…the next morning he found himself charged with speeding and reckless driving(wtf) the police officer was coming from the opposite direction so how could he determine reckless driving? Then that night several others were arrested for silly things like speeding, no seatbelt, etc..all in the same area and by the same officer. Mostly Hispanics, but some other folks found themselves there as well..and another man met my husband this morning while they were trying to get someone to come to the station and said he was also falsly accused of speeding by this same officer and that he was going to fight the illegal actions of the officer as well. We have retained an attorney over this one. So anyone going through this area avoid it if you can by sticking to the Interstate or move with extreme caution, get a dash cam if you can..
