If the driver didn’t see the speed limit sign (which was clearly visible from his vehicle as he passed the police car), then I would suggest to you that he needs to improve his awareness level when operating a motor vehicle, and that might save somebody’s life some day

There you go again.. getting the facts wrong. The driver DID NOT SAY he didn't see the sign we all see on the video. In fact, he says he DID see it, and was slowing down. He claimed, he was not even TO the sign when the officer turned on his lights. Which, if the video begins when the lights are turned on... is accurate.

The driver says he DIDN'T SEE another speed limit sign that the officer says is located a "half mile back".

We don't know whether that existed.

Many of the posters that have been taking the drivers side claim that the police car pulled in front of the speed limit sign, and that the driver did not see it due to that.

That is what my response was in reference to.

The reference to another sign which the officer said was ‘a half mile back’ or so, was that a speed limit sign or the one saying ‘Loose gravel’?

I think it is not clear from the tape.
