Cheneyville Hwy 71
As i approached Cheneyville on Hwy 71 headed south, I was doing 47 and the police car cruising toward me hit his lights. The 35 mph sign was in FRONT of me and I braked and was doing 33 by the time I crossed the sign. He turned around in the loose gravel loop and pulled me over. He ticketed me for 47 in a 35 and I said “No No, I was still in the 45 zone when you clocked me” He told me there were 2 signs. I argued to no avail. He is the Chief of Police and I’ve heard this is a common occurrence. When I called city clerk she was apologetic, but told me the fine was $202.00. I sent my son to pay the fine because I didn’t want to even see this ‘chief”. I hate this town…all beware – you better not go even 1 mph over their posted 35! When you see the town you’ll know why…it has NO other way to generate income.
