If that's not where they plan to have a speed limit, well I agree with you, it makes no sense.
Sleepers to shore would make sense but why start (making sense) now ? If traffic were the prime concern I would have thought the area off the Weirs would have been a prime candidate. From FL44 to Eagle to Governors to Holts Pt (heck, I'll toss in everything to the bridge) to somewhere off the Weirs to Spindle Pt to FL44. Plus I have to believe that most of Rusty's complaining customers are really complaining about traffic in this area. Now I don't recall the last time I saw someone in excess of 45 mph in that area but like I said ... why start now.
