DelPrado and 4100 Block
Traveling north from Cape Coral Parkway in the right lane with at least 8 other cars doing same speed. As we slowed to turn on to Savona, car with flashing lights appears and turns with us. Says we were doing 50 in a 35. Beware of signs going from 45 to 35 in seconds. We were last in the group and the only one stopped. Two cops in the car and the donation will be $163. Just like Waldo was. Sad. Don’t think we were going that fast, but if we were so was everyone else.
