Remember that whole ordeal of 'if you're caught by the cameras going one single solitary mile over 45 in a construction zone, you'll be mailed a $375 fine on your first offense, a $1000 on your second'? Did this actually happen? Did anyone out there actually get the dreaded ticket, or know someone who did? Was this just an empty threat? I ask this because, every time I drive through said zone, NO ONE seems to have slowed down 45, or even close to it. So, either hundreds of these offenses are ticketed daily, or none are and it was all an empty threat to get people driving safer (which didn't work). Your thoughts? Anyone know someone who got a ticket?

This should help explain it:

This rule has been in effect since 2005. I don't know anyone who has gotten a ticket, but it is, apparently true.
