It also helps when you live in a place and KNOW its a speed trap ... but their "cash cow" is all the non-local traffic on I35 that passes through there.

As my wife's family is from Brackettville and we have a son that lives in SA, I travel that road all too often. I did a Google search as you suggested ... and after reading all of that, trust me ... I will never exit I35 there nor spend one of my hard earned dollars within the Selma city limits. Hope all the businesses in Selma appreciate what the City is doing for them.



Or you could just drive the speed limit and not worry about it.

Correct. There was a news story a few years ago about a Cop in Dallas steady writing tickets to people in one. This was after somebody had taken it to court and had it dismissed. They count on people just paying the fine.

I don't think Selma's cash cow are the tickets anymore. This area has built up enough with the Forum and all the businesses and the revenue the city makes from them that I think they are just carrying on a tradition now. They spent all that money on that stage stop that no one ever visits, lol. The new park and pavilion are nice though and at least they get a good amount of use. And the outdoor movie nights were nice during the summer.
