Did you get a ticket on route 17, the "Quickway?"
Route 17 is the longest state route in New York, at 397 miles. One end of the road is at the New Jersey line near Hillburn, it runs through numerous towns and villages where I regularly appear in traffic court, and the other end runs past Binghamton and to the Pennsylvania state line. The New York State Thruway is the only longer highway in New York, and like the Thruway it’s patrolled by state troopers who are very knowledgable when it comes to when and where a driver might end up speeding or otherwise do something that could result in a traffic ticket.
What makes the Quickway very different than the Thruway is the fact that the speed limit varies over its length. Since not all of it’s an interstate highway or some other kind of limited-access road, transportation officials set different limits in different areas. That means that it’s possible to be pulled over for speeding because you didn’t see the most recent drop in the limit.
