Comment (11/2004): I am a resident of Blountville and the officer wrote me a ticket for 76 mph in a 70 zone and then gave me a hassle about my logbook (tractor trailer). My log book was legal and the officer supposedly pulled me out of very heavy traffic with his means of detection. Be very careful in this area because if they wont give a local the benefit of the doubt then I would hate to see what he would do to an out of towner.

Comment (5/2005): yeah i flew by there one time but they didnt come after me

Comment (6/2005): I believe they're the same ones who sit off the side of the interstate behind a small hill just before exit 69 northbound.
