Warning: Speed Trap around exit 308 Rt80. (ticket by mail)

Submitted by john.galt on

Warning Speed Trap around exit 308 Rt80. I just received a ticket by mail for doing 51 mph in the 40 mph, I was in the slow lane following the flow of traffic. Technically the ticket is a warning as the amount is 0 and says next time it will be a ticket. The cut-off point is 11 miles over 40 as mentioned in the ticket.
