This is dead wrong. The speed limit on Hwy 65 is only 55. So you must slow 10 mph when you hit the city limits of Greenbrier. A police officer does not hide behind any speed limit sign. This is blatantly wrong. period.
When coming from the south from I-40 the speed limit is 55. When coming from the north from Harrison, the speed limit is 65. The speed limit in Greenbrier drops from that to 45 and then 35. We can argue all day whether Greenbrier is a Speed Trap. Suffice it to say, if you speed through Greenbrier on Hwy 65, you just might get a ticket. I'd slow down if I were you.
The speed limit on Hwy 65 is 55mph. No wonder the commenter who said it is 65 may have gotten a ticket somewhere on it. Better re-take the Arkansas drivers test. Or at least look at the manual.
There is no place on hwy 65 that the speedlimit gets up to 65 It is HWY 65 people a 55mph hwy.. yes it does drop to 45 in some places but if people paid attention to speed limit signs they wouldnt get a ticket
This is no joke people. I experienced this same incredible abuse of authority. I have not had a speeding ticket ever. I entered the city of Greenbrier at 55 mph. I slammed my brakes as soon as I saw the 45 mph. sign. A mile later at the Sonic I noticed a police car behind me with flashing lights. I thought that he must be pulling over someone else so I got over. He was still behind me and I pulled into the Sonic. The office same to my window and asked for my information. He said that he clocked me at 55 in a 45. I said that's weird I slammed my brakes immediately upon seeing the sign. He took my information to his vehicle. He came back to ask me if I had ever had a ticket. I said no I don't speed and that I was confused because I slowed down at the sign. I asked him where he clocked me. He replied just right there at Valet Cleaners. Implying that this was maybe a mere block away. I thought even stranger because I know I was not speeding through a city. I drove back to look where he said this Valet Cleaners was and it was a mile away at the speed limit sign. AND HE HAD GONE BACK TO THIS SAME EXACT SPOT TO SCREW MORE PEOPLE. I took pictures of this. He is sitting behind the sign off the road near a fence. How this is legal I don't know. I called the city dispatcher thinking that that they had a rouge cop and that someone needed to go talk to him. She laughed at me and said she would pass the msg. on to the chief.
I feel completely violated. I called my friend to ask about the law enforcement in this city since she has been through the area. She said that she and almost everyone she knows has had the exact same thing happen.
I would venture to guess that anyone commenting that this information is incorrect is an officer in Greenbrier. I will certainly be going to my court date hopefully with an attorney. This needs to stop!!!!
