Largo, Clearwater, Kenneth City and Pinellas Park are just as bad.
He's right

Every agency has become more "enforcement oriented" since the state decided to stop taxing the citizens to death.

The fines and fees have gone up and the "slack" has gone down.

A lot of those school zones are minimally marked (but marked all the same) as required by statute. And the low speed zones abound in St. Pete.

Have fun, but be careful out there.
