Washington, Florida Speed Traps
State Highway 79 near I-10 Expressway
As you exit I-10, you see a posted speed of 55 mph. About 1/4 down the road, you will see a reduce speed but no further information. My husband and I have both been stopped, one officer told us the speed limit was 50 mph, no ticket was given as he was travelling 55 mph. I was travelling 55 mph and was told the speed limit is 45 during construction. I explained it was Sunday and no workers were present. I still received a ticket along with 4 other drivers pulled over with me travelling the same speed. A speed limit sign should be posted to drive 45, not just reduce speed.
