WHio-4 CARF will send the cards to each person, or. if preferred, indicate how they should be signed and that they should l>e mailed directly to the persons being honored Allow time for mailing By Officer Jim Fitzgerald Surely you have read the section in this paper which shows the traffic tickets issued by the McHenry Police department. I'm also sure that you have noticed just how many of those tickets were issued for speeding violations. Here are a couple of tips to help you keep your name off of that list. All of the streets in the city of McHenry have a 25 mph speed limit on them, unless it is posted otherwise. Exceptions are Route 120. Route 31, Crystal Lake road, and portions of Green street This 25 mph limit applies to all other streets in the city, including all of the streets in a subdivision. The law states that all of the streets in the subdividision do not have to be posted, since all the streets that enter the sub­ division are posted with the same speed limit. Children play all around their houses, and sometimes play in the street. By exceeding the legal limits you make it harder to stop in time, as might be necessary; and we all know that when a small child is in­ volved, the unexpected is the expected ^ When traveling down a street and approaching a speed limit sign that indicates a faster speed than you are traveling presently, you cannot go the higher limit until you have passed the new sign. Fuzzbusters are the latest things to come along in the continuing battle ag&inst the 55 mph limit. The unfortunate part is that the cheaper ones don't work as well as expected and give the owner a false sense of security until he is stopped. The newer, more powerful ones have a bad habit of picking up stray signals, and the owners tend to turn them down or off The only real fuzzbuster is doing the legal speed limit All speed limits posted are the maximum speed allowable on the road under ideal con­ ditions: i.e dry road surfaces, adequate road smoothness, moderate traffic volume, etc Different road surfaces such as concrete and asphalt have definite adhesion tendencies Those conditions change when the surface gets wet from rain, oil deposits, gasoline spills from accidents, or when rubber is left on the surface from vehicle tires. These things, coupled with vehicle weight averages, are used in determining the speed limits posted on the road by the state and by local municipalities. When your vehicle isn't in top shape, having problems such as poor brakes or balding tires, and you add that to different road surfaces and conditions, different situations are created for stopping and maneuvering If all these conditions aren't just right, an accident could occur which could result in a citation for "Too Fast For Conditions", which is a form of speed violation If you can't stop in time and hit someone else because of your not being alert and taking into consideration the weather or road conditions or going too fast for the posted limits, the citation cou|,d be for "Failure to Reduce Speed To Avoid An Accident". another form of speed violation. So you see. awareness of On Dec 1.
