While driving to the LAN party this weekend I noticed a sign that said:

Warning:
65
MPH
Speed Limit
Enforced.

I think this is incredibly considerate of The Man, letting me know where exactly they're going to actually feel like enforcing those arbitrary numbers they say we're not supposed to go faster than. It's useful information.

It occured to me, though, that since The Government is taking such a friendly, helpful attitude towards those citizens who feel they should drive 90mph everwhere they go, they could probably do it a bit more effectively.
I mean, that sign didn't say where they stopped enforcing their speed limit. That would be more helpful.

That would still leave some uncertainty, though. How about if they put up signs that said "Warning: One Mile Away From Traffic Cop!" So you had a mile to slow down the fifty or so miles per hour necessary to prevent yourself from getting a ticket. The sign could also list what hours the patrol car is going to be stationed at that particular speed trap, as well as some idea of how MUCH you have to be speeding for the cop to care enough to pull you over.

And all policemen's badges should include not only their badge number and last name, but also a rough estimate of how much cash and/or which sexual favors it takes to bribe them out of giving you a ticket or arresting you for drug trafficking. You know, to serve the public.
