Bouncing a roadtrip off the west coast

--- Quote ---That's great news! Are they gone from the whole state or just interstates? I know two people who got tickets on city streets from Tuscon PD during business trips last year.

They are still on some surface streets in Tucson, but they're off the interstates and out of Phoenix.

J N Winkler:
Corco is right--motel-type accommodation will not be a problem in Hays, Colby, or Goodland for that matter.  I'd be more concerned about the average daily mileage:  700 is pushing it.  550 is more realistic.

Florence, SC has illegal speed cameras.  They violate SC state law.  Get a ticket from them, report it to their attorney general.

As for Arizona, the current governor removed the speed cameras that Napolitano put up across the state.

plenty of speed cameras left in Arizona.  One of Globe/Superior/Miami comes to mind.

I have no idea if they are operational.  I err on the side of caution and do 5 below the limit.

So you weren't the fellow who set the land speed record for an unmodified Hyundai Sonata? (A couple years ago, someone very illegally exposed a flaw in the Arizona radar units, or proved Car & Driver didn't hit a true closed-course top speed...a re-test was closer to the ticketed soeed, but still off.)

I'd definitely recommend the Tamiami Trail section through southern Florida, but there is a ten mile stretch that's presently under construction to aid in drainage and natural water flow to the Everglades. You might enjoy a little diversion via I-275 in Tampa, and see the Sunshine Skyway bridge.
