Hello,

I wonder if anyone else has noticed the lack of speed limit signs on some LA 
area freeways?


Obviously by the length of this thead there are alot of doubts. . . . . .
I'll add one....  Is the speed limit different for trucks?  They'er going everywhere from
45-70....  Anyone know for sure?

  [Since Shapeshifter is unable to detect and quote followups
  correctly, lets just make it look like he wrote ALL of the above.]

  There is no currently POSTED truck speed limit anywhere on any
  freeway that I've been on lately.   CHP spokespersons on local
  snooze programs have alleged that the truck speed limit is 55
  and that "the truckers are responsible for knowing this".  Of
  course these are the same spokespersons who claim that the CHP
  can legally ticket ordinary autos for driving in excess of 55
  on a freeway where Caltrans simply hasn't gotten around to changing
  the signs to 65 or higher yet.
