re: Idiot cops that don't know the law

I was pulled over once on my way down to the beach (fricking hellhole of a speed trap that is Robertsdale, AL), and I had almost the same argument with a cop.

He said the speed limit is enforceable as soon as you can see the sign.

I asked him how he could tell at what distance one could read the sign and does he make adjustments for nearsighted/old folks

Of course he didnt have an answer, but of course he gave me the ticket anyway.
