Coming in the city of Ville Platte or leaving by this route you will be on a 5 lane. The speed limit is 50. You aren’t dealing with the most brilliant of law enforcement as the cop said it was a 45 and then wrote on the ticket "50". The limit changes from time to time so be careful. Also you come of the one way going outof town onto the 5 lane you may feel comfortable with 55 or a little bit higher but don’t. This is especially true if you are on a motorcycle.
