A Sea Of Red

Timberlake Road is 45mph.
NOT 35mph.

If you can't read the speed limit sign, you shouldn't be driving. Pay attention & go the freakin' speed limit.

That is all....

that always drives me crazy cause i think its 35 cause everyone is driving freaking slow, then i see its 45 and start flyin by people.

I'd also like to add to the announcement that 460 is 65 mph, not 55!

it's a speed LIMIT sign. There is a point where driving too slow is dangerous, but 10mph under is not unreasonable. Especially on a 2 lane road where you can pass people. I'm a 10mph over guy myself.

I'm a drive the sped limit person myself, can't legally be pulled over for speeding if you aren't speeding lol

Didnt hear a word you said until the end
I agree

Problem here is, they take up both lanes & look at you like you're crazy when you tell them to move over. There have been quite a few times that I pointed to the speed limit sign as we both pass by it.

Agreed. Again, pointing at the speed limit sign while people look at you seems to give me a little satisfaction.

I'm thinking about taking an ad out in the paper that says just what JDUB & I have posted. Nothing more, nothing less.....but in BIG FREAKIN' LETTERS.

My senior year they changed 460 from 55 to 65, and I'd always forget and stay around 60-65 and wonder why people were flying by me.

460 changes to 55 at Campbell Ave.

good. no one goes to the ghetto except you. i'm talking about right by school and towards roanoke

If you're claiming I live in the ghetto, you need to get out of Mebane more. My neighborhood is nowhere close to the ghetto.

esp since SJ may be the youngest one on the block.

by 4 decades

seriously? define close

How about I define "just a saying." Yes, some of Campbell Ave isn't great, but even that doesn't start for probably ten blocks.

My pet peeve is not passing in the passing lane. I was on 29 one time and these two people were right next to each other in both lanes doing 40. I flashed my high beams at both of them and neither did anything. In NJ where I'm from we have signs on our roads that say "Pass left, stay right", and it seems to do the trick.

Ha, ha. I have a sign I like to flash them. It means something a little different.

are people really THAT scared of the "ghetto" in lynchburg??

I dunno, if they are scared of the ghetto we can always take them to West Philadelphia. Live in the Philadelphia area, been to that part of town once, heard gunshots a block down from where I was stopped at a red light, sped away screaming like a baby.

No.

no not scared of it.. its really not that bad. i just like getting SJ stirred up about it

I played football for 3 years with most of "those guys." And, the four years I put into retail while I did my undergrad, I met a lot more of them. Are there trouble makers out there? Sure. But, its not as bad as some of the local people make it out to be, in comparison.

uh- its not all bad.

the Zoo is in W. Philly. U of P. Hanehman/Children's Hospital.

All of Fairmont Park, incl the Mann.

never had a problem.

of course, I don't go looking for trouble.

Haha, it's not Medic. I was driving back from Chickie and Petes at 1 in the morning and got lost. Found my way but realized it took me through West Philly.

Of course not all of West Philly is bad. Had a couple operations at Children's Hospital and UPenn and like that area. Just like any town though people have to be careful when going through certain areas at night, especially the part Will Smith raps about.

I hear you get picked up and spun around in West Philly. So watch where you basketball is going.
