Highway 49 south of Brinkley

Brinkley, ArkansasApr 09, 20101 Comments

Brinkley is located about halfway between Little Rock and Memphis. A lot of drivers heading for the casinos take the Brinkley exit off Interstate 40 and take Hwy 49 south enroute to Tunica, Miss. State trooper activity is heavy on the stretch of highway from Brinkley to the Hwy 79 intersection, about 20 miles. I live 10 miles south of Brinkley, and if I don’t see blue lights while driving to and from work in town, its only because the troopers were called to an accident somewhere in another vicinity.

I grew up in area... (Brinkley)visit area for family..who lives there....This is a speed trap area !. like most small towns no crime is solved...Policemen are Revenue_men. Small municipalities have no need for "Stand Your Ground" laws...since something as serious as Murder would most likely go unsolved...unless someone told. The focus is on generating revenue...via 2-3 mph overlimt and half can of beer after dinner. In return Police wanna be's etc get to strut around in a relatively new city vehicle ( only new vehicle) they have drove. and look at each others twinkling lights. hmmm,,, now makes you wonder...who's watching the watchers.
