Hwy. 76 (The Strip) Between U.S. Hwy. 65 And Shepherd Of The Hills
The entire Branson strip is constantly patrolled by Branson PD and they appear to write hundreds of tickets per day along this five mile alignment. I and others observe them pulling people over, during mostly daylight hours, and writing tickets in the parking lots of Branson’s show theaters and hotels. Monday, I spotted a kid in a Jeep and it looks like it took two patrol cars to pull him over. They are looking for anyone going even one mile over the speed limit, expired tags, lights, etc. No one gets off with just a warning. Branson recently spent a lot of money on sidewalk improvements, a convention center, etc. This is clearly their way of paying for it. They seem to go after locals only as ticketing tourists might impact the town’s bottom line. I am told drivers that get pulled over are asked what business they have in Branson. Most tourists are allowed to go with a warning. All locals get a ticket. Beware.
