Route 417 east out of the city, at the city line (tile plant)
Olean city police sit in the American Tile plant parking lot, looking west for vehicles coming over a hill crest. It is a four lane roadway, but the speed limit is 30 in the city. Adding to the misery is a right lane merge that must be made before getting to the bottom of the hill – this is where they catch you, as you accelerate to get into the left lane! (NOTE: I defended a ticket hear with photographic evidence that the deputy did not have a clear sight of my vehicle, due to trees and signs until I would have made the merge. He guessed that I was speeding,and likely didn’t expect that I would challenge the ticket – ALWAYS challenge a ticket!)
