<br />For more information, call Dorothy Scroggins at

<br />
<br />SAFE DRIVING
<br />
<br />Apparently, many persons are confused about, or
<br />just plain haven't read signs abouUhe speed zones
<br />on Ramsey Blvd. Whenever we work radar on that
<br />highway, the speeds are averaging 54 to 56 mph and
<br />that, dear drivers, is 4 to 6 mph over the speed limit
<br />for 90% of the entire road. I believe one of three
<br />states of mind exist here to give us this average:
<br />
<br />1) You haven't seen the rather large, obvious
<br />signs which notify drivers that the speed limit
<br />is 50 mph from County Road #5 (Nowthen
<br />Blvd.) to County Road #116 (Industry Blvd.).
<br />If you haven't seen them, and they have
<br />been there for years, look! They are taller,
<br />albeit skinnier than any child and have a
<br />stark black and white head. If you can't see
<br />the signs, how will you see the pedestrians?
<br />2) You know the limit is 50 but, (A) your
<br />speedometer is off because of the wrong
<br />gear in the tranny; (B) you have mounted
<br />radically different size tires on the rear of
<br />your car and they create a wrong reading;
<br />(C) your speedometer is broken; or (D) be-
<br />ing human, you just plain get carried away
<br />listening to the FM stereo (Bolero- adults,
<br />Led Zeppelin - kids) and you don't watch the
<br />meter.
<br />3) You jolly well realize how fast you are go-
<br />ing but are of the "bull-buffalo" mentality
<br />that says, "What? You mean there are other
<br />people in this world than myself."
<br />
<br />I am empathetic with the first two because we all
<br />stray sometimes and our speeding is not really in-
<br />tentional. A citation from the gendarmes is the little
<br />whack on the back of the head that wakes us up (a
<br />Mille Lacs County deputy jerked my chain awhile
<br />back and now my checkbook whimpers at the county
<br />line)..
<br />The third one, the "bull-buffalo", has no excuse
<br />and generally has a lengthy record of violations.
<br />Happiness is tagging a "BB"!
<br />For all of you who use Ramsey Blvd., remember
<br />the speed limit is 50 for all but about the last mile
<br />on the highway #10 end.
<br />
<br />PLEASE 50 50 50 50 50 50 etc.
<br />
<br />You will also note that on Nowthen Blvd., Sunfish
<br />Lake Blvd. and Ramsey Blvd. there are equally large,
<br />visible signs which prohibit driving on the shoulders
<br />of those highways (bicycles are permitted however).
<br />The shoulder is that paved portion of the highway
<br />to the right of the solid white line, except where there
<br />are marked Right Turn Lane signs. Where there are
<br />marked and signed right turn lanes, you can drive
<br />into those lanes only for the purpose of making a
<br />right turn. You cannot pass using the area to the
<br />right of the aforementioned shoulder line. Now, if
<br />everybody drove reasonably and we didn't have
<br />those "bull-buffalos" trampling down the highways,
<br />those lanes may have never been put off limits to
<br />passing. But, for too many drivers the instant they
<br />see the left turn signal of the vehicle ahead come
<br />on, they maintain their 50 or 55 mph and instantly
<br />wrench over to the right to pass the turning vehicle,
<br />thereby saving 10 seconds of time, a micromeasure-
<br />ment of brake pad and, perhaps, a thimble full of
<br />gasoline. Never mind that a pedestrian or bicyclist
<br />may be using the paved shoulder and is screened
<br />from view of the passer by the left turning car!
<br />Bicyclists and pedestrians use these paved
<br />shoulders and do so expecting a degree of safety.
<br />DON'T DRIVE ON THE PAVED SHOULDERS.
<br />Shortly after this reminder is published, we are go-
<br />ing to start tagging for this violation.
<br />
<br />DID YOU KNOW
<br />
<br />. Police Home Checks - Call the Police Department
<br />at 427-1410 if you are leaving your home for periods
<br />of over 4 days (vacations, etc.) and we will put you

<br />specify 'Ramsey' also. All Ramsey residents and
<br />businesses are requested and encouraged to please

<br />Rum River must have city approval for any land
<br />alteration or construction. For further information call
