However 35 miles above the speed limit is just not acceptable. So 65 in a 30? Or 95 in a 60? Inquiring minds want to know. Neither, Celeste. It was a construction zone with the limit reduced to 15mph. However...the orange barrels were on the berm and there was no construction going on at all. I am pretty sure the normal speed limit was 50 or 55.... lol, that reminds me on my driving test once I passed it....where I had to go through such a zone but then apparently started too early to drive the normal limit again...and so my driving teacher asked the examiner how he now sees the situation (I am told that over in america you only have the examiner in the car, well, in Germany we have the driving teacher next to you during the exam and the driving instructor sits at the back). However, whilst I thought towards my driving teacher "can't you just shut up?!" The driving examiner asked me to turn right, where I thought great...thats it once again but instead he replied to my driving teacher "it's not the driving pupils fault when they place their signs in such a stupid way." Gosh I loved him!!! And was even more thrilled when I had him again (as you never know which examiner you get) when I did the driving licence for the motorbike soon later (though today I don't drive them anymore...am safer with 4 wheels ) JEFF!!!! You do well sweetie keep doing...they said in the forecast that the snow will come down here...so just keep going ok??? Glad to see you back monkey and DesFIP and all the other folks on here
