re: Atchafalaya Basin Speed Cameras?

That's ONE factor....among other contributing factors are 1. construction/maintenance is a top priority 2. ALL vehicles are thoroughly/completely inspected on a yearly basis, those that 'fail' the 'Tuff' inspection are not allowed back on the roads until certified as mechanically 'safe' and efficient 3. driving is NOT a right, it has to be 'earned' via a months long training process which is very expensive...giving you a well 'educated' driving population that generally follow the rules of the road as any citations are both harsh and expensive...no one drives w/o a valid license/insurance 4. trucks are not allowed in passing lanes and have a mandated LOWER SPEED limit....just try to get these common sense laws passed/enforced in our country...LOL
