On SH-49 just off I-44

Medicine Park, OklahomaApr 22, 20110 Comments

Medicine Park, a small town of less than 300 people, have annexed a small business strip along SH-49 just off I-44. This area is more than 5 miles from the town of Medicine Park. It is used as a source of revenue both from sales taxes levied at the 6 or 7 businesses and also from traffic tickets issued by their town policemen. They hang out at a convenient store at the location drinking coffee and then cruising the highway for speeders above the 45 mph limit. (65 mph just a mile west) They are not protecting the citizens of their town. They are there solely for the purpose of gleaning revenue for their town. This is a “speed trap” by all definitions.
