WOW! Not one speeding ticket written. That is great. I was hoping the SL would work but never imagined it would work that well. After all, the purpose of the SL was to keep boats under 45/25. If NO tickets were written then the law is doing EXACTLY as it was intended.
For years the opposition has been asking to see the evidence that a speed limit could work, now we have that proof. And it was accomplished without anyone, Marine Patrol included, having to go to court or pay a fine. A win, win all around.
Hazelnut - There were reams of information supporting the SL. Tourist complaints, lost business, deaths, noise, water quality reduction, camps unable to send out boats etc. You may not agree with these, but to say these arguments don't exist? come now! Many businesses INCLUDING MARINAS came out for the SL.
Your solution is increased education and Marine Patrol funding. Great ideas that are not going to happen. Better an imperfect solution that can be implemented, than a perfect solution that we will NEVER see.
