Same as Arizona in the 1960's.


The only ticket I ever got in Arizona was a 70 in a 55 and it was $5
no points


AAA listed it as a speed trap for the reason they had a 50-55 speed limit
in the middle of the desert. 90 miles of nothing before Flagstaff, 55 mph
speed limit. I got a 15 over ticket, because I slowed for the city limits
of Flagstaff about 5 miles from any habitation. He had chased me for 8
miles he said and could not get a clocking. He had had to tuen around and
try to catchup. Tag me and another car he waved over for the 15 over. Was
$1 a mile. Lady asked me how fast was I going after the cop left. She
said she was at 85 when I passed her. 105 mph. Deserved a ticket
probably, but also did not deserve a 55 daytime, 50 night time limit either
in a divided limited access highway.
