West of Franklin on Hwy 79 near True Value store

Franklin, TexasApr 22, 20101 Comments

Going into Franklin the speed goes from 70 to 35 very quickly. I reduced speed as indicated. As I left going west, I increased speed accordingly. The last sign before 70 was 55. When I saw the 70 sign I increased speed. I was given a ticket for 67 in a 55. Even the officer pointed to the 70 sign saying you were almost there. Can’t tell me this is Not a speed trap!

Comments:
Since the speed limit is clearly marked from 70 to 60 to 55 to 50 and then 45 with plenty of time for you to slow down I would say you were probably in too big a hurry to notice. It may be a speed trap but if you read speed limit signs you won't get a ticket here.
