In an otherwise pleasant visit to Arizona I was caught in a speed trap on 188 near Lake Roosevelt. Big wide road, two lanes up, one lane down, going down 7% grade, posted 55 (though many narrower roads in AZ are posted 65) passed two cops, broke my own rule which is don't show 70 to the radar in a 55, third patrol car coming up the hill made a u-turn and cited me for 72mph. Had a rather spirited conversation with the officer.

Pleasantly surprised he wrote me for 10 mph over and further made it a non-moving violation "Wasting finite resources" which was $47.60 and no points.

Re AZ speed cameras, I didn't see a single one on AZ on my trip in June. I usually pass one on Yarnell Grade on the way to Prescott just when the road gets really fun.
