State Highway 79 / 190 / 36 near Northern edge of town
Traveling south on Highway 190 most drivers get lulled into the posted 70 MPH speed limit. However, if you don’t get your vehicle speed down at the very northern edge of Milano, well before you see their 50 MPH speed limit sign, its probably too late. There is precious little time and distance to react to the officer that is within spitting distance from the 50 MPH speed limit sign, off to the right, next to some buildings. Despite the fact that the traffic around you (when and if there is any) probably won’t have responded and slowed either and no that lives or property were put at risk, you too will get to contribute to the Milano annual city budget. I suppose by their letter of the law, their tickets are valid. But, they sure don’t give drivers much reaction time to slow things down from one posted speed to another. Actually, the officer was just as nice and polite as can be. He had the drill down pat and appeared to be at or over quota. I’ll be buying gas and travel goodies for the wife and kids in another town until this problem gets fixed.
