    Man that is so silly. There is nothing out there to hit. Worse case scenario your truck will roll in the dry dirt for a little bit and you get back on the road. They police out there are just bored because there are hardly any crimes out there and the speed limit is too reasonable so they hate that.

    Iowa gave less leeway after raising the limit from 65 to 70, and the limits around the urban areas are lower. I only went a little ways and then went north on 61, but saw 5 in a few miles near Bettendorf


    I didn't see that much difference in PA, NJ was loaded as usual, and I took the scenic route through OH and IN, but the toll and the turnpike are usually crawling with enforcement.

    Wyo. had a few extra out between Cheyenne and Pine Bluffs, of course the three accidents between Cheyenne and Laramie in the last week haven't helped matters

    it just not in Utah they are doing this. It's actually all 11 states , from coast to coast, where I-80 runs thru. At least that is what dave nemo said the other day on his radio channel on xm

    They are targeting everyone, just not trucks. Came across Wyoming yesterday, saw 6 cops, in 3 hrs, 4 with cars, two with trucks

    Safety any time is rule 1
