They're brutal I work in Fourchon and we warn all the new hires but most of them usually still wind up with a ticket for 1 or 2 miles over the limit.

Are they still as bad as they used to be? "Nightline" ran a piece a few years back on the "Golden Meadow Speed Trap". I thought I heard they had settled down a bit after that.

I've heard they kinda backed off a lil bit. A buddy of mine said that it's due to a change in the law stating that any speeding tickets between 1 and 9 mph over, the city doesn't get all of the money but if it's 10+ over then they will get the usual amount of the price of the ticket. Don't know how true that is, just something I heard.
