    Marion? There's always locals working there down to I-24 split along with the DOT. There's some more locals that work regularly down around the 16-17.

    But thanks for the heads up. You need money, pick on the truckers. They are from out of town and have plenty of money.

    Exit 59

    No, not Marion. It is Johnston City I-57 Exit 59 about five miles north of Marion and 15 miles north of 57/24 split

    That is a small town. They do need money. I wonder if they considered other fundraisers like a chili cookoff or lemonade stand?

    Nah, get the speeders on a federally funded interstate. It's easier.

    I don't see where they are picking on truckers ot out of town people. I would imagine they will target any speeder, whether it's got 18 wheels or just 1.

    I'm just playin'. Keeping roads safe is one thing. Generating revenue is another. And they advertise it just makes it worse.

    While all two bears are out there, someone needs to break in the mayor's house.

    I'd like to see someone peddling a unicycle that fast.
