This driver went hot-dogging around me ono the right on Lake Avenue in front of Wal-Mart this afternoon. I had just turned off U.S. 14 and was heading into Woodstock. She was behind me as traffic moved along at the 40MPH speed limit.
The right lane was open, so she moved over and flew by, getting back over into the through lane just before the right lane ended.
Guess who was right in front of me at the red light at Route 47? And guess who was right in front of me at the stop sign at South Street?
Grannie in her grey Saturn saved, let's see... three-four seconds.
Lake Avenue in front of Wal-Mart would be a great place for PhotoRadar. Unfortunately, the legislators in Springfield must view PhotoRadar about the same way they do Concealed Carry.
About the only way Woodstock Police will ever nab any speeders on Lake Avenue will be to disguise themselves as street people and sit on a box on the curb. When a speeder comes along, sit up and aim the radar gun right at him! It worked in Texas; it ought to work here...

When (not if) someone pokes you in the nose the list of suspects will be long and distinguished. It is illegal in many states to have a camera in use in your car. Maybe we need THAT in Illinois.
nuisance, please cite one or two states with such a law, along with the statutes. Why would there be a law to prohibit taking a picture from your vehicle?
You were the one with the link to the "tail of the dragon" website. Did you look at any of it. Clever cutting of my identity.
