Answer 1

No. This has been floating around for some time and has been attributed to several different states.

Answer 2

That exceeded in Texas approximately 3 years in the past. purely right here, you do no longer ought to decelerate whilst you're no longer interior the lane right now next to the cop. And in case you do, it truly is purely 10 MPH below published velocity.

Answer 3

Doesn't seem true at all. Looks like a chain email.

#7 doesn't even make sense. You can't go any above the speed limit already

Answer 4

hm seems reasonble. my mom used to live there and they are all about saftey. they pull people over like crazy i was there for 2 weeks in november and i saw like 40 people get pulled over in one week just on the way to cataula from lagrange which i was going back and fourth from.i saw at least 5 people get pulled over when we got there from atlanta to catula. so it seems really reasonble that they would make something up like this.
