I have also passed many places along the road with construction signs up but not 1 piece if equipment and seen tickets being issued for exceeding the work zone speed limit.
DOTD specifically spells out speed drop zones on state road projects. See Speed Limit notes on the attached pdf link.
Temporary Traffic Control
If project being done under EBR DPW Field Engineering, they allow the speed drops for the entire project where DOTD does not allow. Cops love construction zones for this reason. Dealt with some construction workers in the field that would tell me that cops would as them to hurry up and put up their reduced speed signs for work that day so they can give out tickets.

Well I did have a truck one evening riding my arse coming out of New Orleans about a month after Katrina with flashing strobes and a yellow light on top laying on his horn while I was doing 90 in the left lane. And really I was going with the flow and had no where to go for a couple miles before I could get over.
When I did he passed me and gave me the finger. While giving me that lovely greeting he failed to notice the solid oak dining room table that apparently had fallen off a truck and was dead center in the left lane. Well needless to say he fricked his truck up bad and I had a good laugh. The side of his truck said New Mexico Animal Control. Guess he had a sick cat.
