The Village, OklahomaApr 09, 20111 Comments

Speed limit drops from 35 to 15 near a school, police hide behind a tree across the street from the school. Speed limit signs are obscured by bushes and trees.
I see motorists ticketed everyday there. The Village is two square miles in size and has a population of ten thousand, but Oklahoma City motorists must pass through The Village on their way to work. This tiny town has three judges who hear traffic tickets in their village court. The administrative costs of running
this court are way out of proportion.

I travel this section of road every day. The speed limit in the school zone is 30, not 15. None of the speed limit signs are obscured in either direction. The Village is THREE square miles and only has one municipal judge. The administrative costs for their court are what state law allows. Oklahoma City motorists do not HAVE to pass through The Village at all, but if they do and they speed, they are very likely to be stopped. I've been here for 20 years.
