In my experience living in a small town, the good ol boys are allowed to drive like maniacs, but the cops are up your ass the minute you're over the limit.

they can sniff-out those out-of-state plates from miles away. they know you aren't likely to come back to hickville to fight that traffic ticket.

I'd heard this happened but I didn't believe it until I moved from Maine to Massachusetts and went back to visit for the first time. Got pulled over and ticketed for doing 59 in a 55, on a road I (and everyone else) used to drive 65 on every day. Only difference was the MA plates.

Damn straight. Hillbilly douche bro blaring country music while driving his pickup at 55mph through downtown?

It's okay, I know his dad and they're good people.

Out of towners/poor people/"lesser stock"/or people they plain just don't like?

you didn't use your blinker long enough to signal. Sorry, nothing I can do about it, $200 fine.
