It's a beautiful drive around dusk along the River Parkway from Broadway North all the way to South Mpls. The sights are luscious and the pace is leisurely ... sometimes. The speed limit on our city's parkways is 25 miles per hour and do you know that as I kept that pace, I was tailgated and passed ... illegally, I think ... and not once or twice but by four different vehicles! I was at the speed limit, not over and not under. This happens over here on Victory Memorial Parkway as well, but I've never had anyone actually pass me.
I think that if folks are interested in a quick commute from one place to another, they oughta avoid the parkways and use the main thoroughfares with the 30 mph or higher speed limits. Personally, I choose the parkways for the slower pace coupled with some nice scenery. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Connie Beckers - Folwell REMINDERS: 1.
