I know what the answer is.....there is money to be made from writing a high volume of expensive speeding tickets...but....doesn't safety get a hearing at some point too?
They write tickets to trucks sometimes too. Sometimes they just escort them through. Tenn cops are pretty good about truckers when they actually see them.

Tenn cops aren't writing speeding tickets hand over fist either. They have been real decent about how they patrol the area.
