[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has artificially low speed limits as a means to collect revenue.  There is going to be an article coming out about this in Huffington post.  No, we should not just bow down and pay the tickets every singe time.  It's ridiculous that they would have 25/mph speed zones on 6 lane roads.  They need to be in accordance with the needs of the neighborhood and what the public wants.

Also, 125 price has NOTHING to do with previous tickets. It's because of how fast she was going. That's it.  I got a $125 ticket for going 39 in a 25 mile zone on Michigan Ave (6 lane road).  I paid the ticket because I WAS speeding.  Fine.  However, I am fighting to get the speed limits raised to something other than a cash machine for the city.[/quote]

Another fan of the low speed limits of DC.  I live in the City (and not CCDC which I don't count).  I have people from Maryland come zooming by on my road (25 mph limit) at 45 mph every day.  Slow the FUCK down.   Also, is there some reason that people don't stop at stop signs anymore?  [/quote]

Do you live on a quit residential street or Michigan Ave, South Dakota Ave, Conn. Ave?  Those are the ones I'm talking about.  Not 13th Place NE. Of course those should be low.  However, I don't see any kids playing on 6 lane roads during rush hour. Get real![/quote]

Yes people live on Connecticut Ave.  Again, slow the fuck down.[/quote]

Right, forget about the folks in the NE.  After all, NW is all that matters on this forum.  :roll:  Perhaps you should move out to Frederick or another bedroom community and let the us who can handle the city live in DC.

I'd take you more seriously if you had a more reasonable approach to this issue.  I said, and I'll repeat: ABSOLUTELY there are areas where the speed limit needs to be 25, 15 or even 10 MPH.  However, six lane roads in the middle of DC are not those.   [/quote]
