Yes!
Was trying to remember the name of that town..Starke also. Bad!
Lots of crossroads to slow down for also.

Go Interstate.

There was an article from somewhere in the Readers Digest about Lawtey years ago as the worst in the country with hidden speed limit signs and other tricks. I used to live in and around Gainesville back in the 70s and Lawtey was the place locals would take circuitous routes to avoid. I believe the place has been cleaned up, several times. I do not know how it is now. Waldo was always a strict enforcement place but I never thought of it as a speed trap. I blew through there once on a motorcycle at night a bit above the limit and got pulled. The cop said he should give me a ticket but didnt.
