Highway 136

Fisher, IllinoisMay 12, 20110 Comments

At County Rd. 400E heading West you will find yourself at a stop sign. You proceed less than a mile at 55mph. As you just enter the town there is a small sign off to the side that says "reduce speed ahead" (It took three times through before I ever saw this sign which is partially covered by a tree) within 300 feet your speed is reduced to 35. Less than 25 feet after that it is reduced to 20mph in the school zone. I went through at noon and had little chance to get my speed down. I was clocked just as I came into town going 58mph in a 20mph school zone. To make matters worse I was on my cell phone getting directions on how to get where I was going as I was lost. I received two tickets

1. driving 58 mph in a 20 mph school zone
2 talking on a cell phone while driving 58 mph in a school zone.

They also kept my license. (I have not had a ticket in 18 years, and a moving violation in 26 years…still stunned) The signs are visible on Google Earth.
