Last Monday returning from Tx, there was a group of DOTD trucks working on the East bound side. Couldn’t tell what they were doing. No cameras or warning signs up then.

Anyone who believes this is actually going to happen is a fricking idiot.

You don't think people are going to slow down to a crawl or pull over at either end to avoid the fine?

its not far off that they will be doing this on Toll roads. With the toll road scanners, they make the perfect mechanism to enact this. It's coming.


Pretty sure it’s already happening in the states for some toll roads.

I remember one between Dallas and OKC. I only drove it once, don’t remember what road it was on or if they still do it. Someone would have to confirm.

Are you talking about parts of the interstate before and after the bridge that are on solid land?

Sure, the stupid ones, as has been posted, the time difference between crossing at 60mph vs 80mph is about 4 1/2 minutes, anyone can spare 3 or 4 minutes to drive just drive the speed limit.

This stretch of land is some of the easiest driving in Louisiana. There is absolutely no reason to lower the speed limit. The bridge between LaPlace and Kenner is worse.

It’s being timed in segments to avoid this loophole
