To "local". I've been passed on 30-a about a half dozen times in the last 6 years. All the cars passing me had Florida plates.

I would be fine with the speed limit reductions if everyone would quit tailing me for obeying the law. I enjoy cruising over Western lake at 25 as long as I don not have pick up truck kissing my bumper. It does seem 35 would have been a better number.

I saw a state patrol pulling over a car last week traveling over Western Lake. On another matter, we do have another 2 stop signs on your way to Red Bar. The one with the flashing red light gets run everyday I am walking. Note to Walton county - Revenue opportunity.

25 is really really hard to do. and usually there is someone on my tail.
 
As I've stated before, I think that 25 is appropriate on 30A from Watercolor to Eastern Lake Road during spring break, June, and July. We drive that slowly anyhow during the peak season because it is so congested -- don't want to run over someone darting out in front of us. In the off-season 25 mph is absolutely ridiculous. I really don't want to get rear-ended and get a neck injury and a wrecked car because I'm going 25 on an empty road.

but sometimes it is... including me and friends who are ready to get somewhere. It's time to slow down. I was in my girlfriends car when she got busted a few months ago! Yes, we are guilty too.

I think I remember that, wasn't there a quick reminder that who you know means nothing to the WCSO?
