| Just an fyi.. new speed cameras are going in today on Norbeck Rd just west of Muncaster Mill Rd. Both directions. Speed limit is 35mph on that stretch now. |

35 miles an hour is ridiculous on that stretch of the road. And then it climbs to 50 just down the road! I knew they were going to try and make money off that stretch. |
| Ah yes, now the speed limit switch makes sense. Thanks for the heads up, hope I remember that on the few times I drive that stretch of road. |
| Totally agree. It’s a 4 lane road. |
You agree on the speed limit or the speed cameras? |
| I just got a speed ticket . 35 mph speed limit? Police department need some money for BBQ this Summer FFF |
| Neighbors just want to make it safe to run over pedestrians. |
| I remember Georgia Avenue in Olney was like that - went from 50 down to 30 or 35 pretty abruptly, without a lot of visible speed limit signs; people got dinged all of the time because it was ls so easy to go with the speed of traffic and everyone was starting at 50 mph just a little bit up the road. |
Most of the $$$ goes to a private company who supplies the cameras |
| I’m the OP. So far I’ve avoided a ticket, had a couple of close calls though at 530am when I’m driving that way with no traffic in front of me. |
|
I just drive 33-34mph everywhere I go now. Have for years.
No more speeding tickets in the mail for me. |
| when it's started 35mph on Norbeck Rd? I checked my GPS and said 45mph and I saw back of camera and flashed on my car. I looked it's 45mph. I drove 48-50mph. I don't recall about speed. I will get ticket within two weeks. My husband and I did drive on that Norbeck Rd last November 1, 2022, at nighttime around 9pm or so. There wasn't flashed at my car until today I drove it this early morning about 8am. I saw camera flashed at my car. It's really ridiculous. I drove that road for years until I moved to Columbia, MD and rarely use that road until November 1st and today November 10th. I have to go to 50 Maryland Ave. Rockville, MD for open estate my father (passed away) last summer. |
Bingo. This is the correct answer. 35 mph anywhere that isn’t a highway. Don’t like it? Go around me. |
my Garmin GPS says 45 as well. It hasn’t been updated though. Using your gps on court won’t hold up as an excuse fyi…. There are new signs saying 35mph. |
| I got 2 in the mail yesterday...f&^$$ it. We need one where I am. 3 accidents on Randolph Rd near me recently, one fatal. We r begging for a new traffic light, maybe speed cams. !!! F MoCo. |
