Bonneau, SC is a small town on US Hwy 52 between Moncks Corner and St. Stephen. The speed limit is 45 mph. During the day, into the late evening a patrolman cruises up and down the length of the town limits waiting for unsuspecting speeders. This is a 4 lane highway going through a town with no traffic light. An article was written about this in the Post and Courier. They issue $232 "failure to obey traffic laws" tickets to speeders, not speeding tickets. If you show up to court, the ticket is reduced to only $200. There should be a law against it!
