3235, South of Wal-mart, Entering Golden Meadow

Golden Meadow, Louisiana•Apr 22, 2013•2 Comments

When you go past Wal-mart, McDonald’s, Sonic, & several other businesses, passing under a traffic signal, the limit is 65. After you pass everything it drops to 50, for no apparent reason. There is NOTHING there. Not realizing the limit dropped, my DH was driving 62 (thinking it was 65) I have lived in Mississippi all my life & have never been asked for registration. When the unfriendly officer asked for registration, I told him I was unsure if it was in the vehicle. He didn’t say well you may want to check, I’m going to write you a ticket for it. It was in the car all along… The price of their fines in Golden Meadow are a shame.
Total Cost******$439*******
$200…..Failure to carry registration
$185…..Speeding / 12mph over
$29…….Online processing fee
$25…….Article 894 (to keep violation off driving record)
We have no choice but to travel through this money hungry, hole. But from now on we will drive ridiculously SLOW, about 30mph. We will not contribute another dollar to this place. Nor will we spend any money at any business in Golden Meadow, LA.

I'm a 45 year old man from New Orleans Louisiana and I've been aware of this scam speed trap for the majority of my life. I've heard it started do some terrible accident involving kids and a bus or something like this. A local radio show had this a topic and I remember one caller saying he went to a store put a few hundred dollars of spoting goods on the counter and after the clerk rang it all up the man said that he would be unable to pay for anything due to fact that the police took all his money in their speed trap. Good point if you ask me, BOYCOTT this town. I have not been to Grand Isle in 7 years and the last time I did go I went by boat out of Lafitte so we didn't have to go through Golden Meadow. Boycott this Town. Starve them out. This town reminds me of Hazzard County and we are the Dukes and they are Anus I mean Enus Kooper1477
