Nothing Arnold, MO does surprises me. They loved having the MODOT work zones on the highway a few years ago -- nice little revenue stream for them even when there were no workers around.

My daughter just moved from Arnold in February. I thought it was a quaint "red-neck" sort of town, and it felt much like home (rural Utah).

But then again, Salt Lake City has cameras at all major intersections. I'm not sure what they're watching for, but I make sure to pick my nose when I stop at a red light, just to entertain them.

I grew up in that town, this suprises me as they used to be a pretty laid back place. I have a feeling the problem lies in too many yuppies moving out from St. Louis County!

My son lives there now, I'll have to give him a warning!

Me either. I got a ticket on I-55 going through Arnold last December. They were using an airplane, the sneaks.

The worst speed trap in the St. Louis area is the little town of St. George. I think the town government must live on ticket revenue.
