Well I had quite the morning today.
We had snow fall in Dallas, not much, just enough to turn the grass white. Well everyone is driving like there is sheets of ice everywhere, so I was late getting to work. I then realized I had forgot my laptop, so I had to go back home and get it. I decided to take a different route, more back roads that are not as heavily traveled. I was unlucky enough to discover a speed trap that I never knew existed. The speed limit drops from 50 to 35 with no warning. Plano PD was out in a large group right there waiting to ticket. I had to wait for 7 other cars to get their ticket so I could get my 51 in a 35 ticket. I went back and saw the sign, It is right in front of a white with black swirl designs wall. If you are looking for it you can see it, but just driving along at 50, it is easy to miss. It just kind of blends into the wall. I will end up doing the drivers safety course to keep it off my record. I guess they figured a lot of people will be in a hurry today with the snow, that they had a good shot at writing a lot of tickets. I always get annoyed with speed traps like that. I really wasn't trying to rush anywhere, my boss knew I was late and why, there was no reason to try and hurry to get there 5 min quicker. I could hear a couple of the other drivers getting pissed and yelling that the speed limit was 50, and there was no sign. I was calm and respectful the whole time, but I still got the ticket
