Very, very bad wreck on Interstate 75 just south of the Walton Exit.

You mean being underfunded and running thin? What more do you want from us in NKy? We pay for those services from the KSP and then again pay for the services that are given to us by the Boone and Kenton County police!

 

Clyde after working at a State Rest area for 13 years, trust me there is a ton of crime from Drugs to Prostitution and more but thankfully the County of Boone did a good job looking out for the traveling public, but it wasn't a problem for the citizens of Boone who paid the freight of patrolling the place!

 

If the state police were fully staffed I guarantee you would see them more in Boone County. As it stands, their presence is needed more in other areas.

Clyde I realize you travel a lot but so have I and I guaranteed you that I have driven to the WKy area more in the last five or six year than you have.

 

Don't believe me about a speed trap in the Bowling Green area? Go to AAA.com and do a trip tix that takes you through 1_65 in that area and see what you get!

 

Strict Enforcement Areas

 

AAA's Strict Enforcement Area designation means that AAA wants to warn motorists that traffic laws are being enforced to an unusually strict degree by local and/or state law enforcement. The designation is not a censure of the enforcement effort nor is it intended to be derogatory in any way. It is simply a "heads up" to inform motorists that speeding and other violations are enforced more tightly in this area than what drivers are used to in most other parts of the country.

 

The following areas have been designated as Strict Enforcement:

 

 

  • All major roads in the state of Arizona

 

  • All major roads within Washington, DC

 

  • I-55 in Arkansas (Jct I-40 N to MO state line)

 

  • US 19 and US 27 Alt in Chiefland , FL

 

  • US 98 in Gulf Breeze, FL

 

  • I-75 in Lowndes County, GA

 

  • I-65 in Bowling Green, KY

 

  • US-54 in Curryville, MO

 

  • US-19 in Summersville, WV

These areas are noted on the appropriate pages of your TripTik printout if your route includes one of these areas. Make sure that you have "Construction" and "Scenic" checked via the Show�button (see graphic) to include all of AAA's valuable highway information in your printed TripTik guide.

All that says is that basically the police will enforce those areas frequently. It says it could be local or state police. What is your point?

I go through BG all of the time. Customers in BG plus I go to Nashville quite often.

 

Never seen a KSP.

 

I'm on the lookout as I'm usually booking it.

So AAA is giving a warning to its members on the only interstate in Ky for no reason at all? Seems strange.....

 

What about on the WKY, from I-65 to 1-24 to the Murray Exit or over the I-24 Ohio River Bridge to Illinois?

All I can tell you is what I see (or don't see). I'm quite familiar with 65.

 

I rarely go out towards Murray.

I'm not sure what you are asking. But you do realize that there are other police in those areas that can patrol the interstate and not just the state police, right? It might be patrolled frequently by locals.

I do understand but in my travels I have seen more KSP along the I-65/WKY/I-75 in the Corbin and Georgetown area than any County Police!

 

BTW if you notice you rarely see a Kenton County officer patrolling the Interstate and not many community police (other than Erlanger) either anymore and that includes Covington! They tend to patrol their own communities more than the Interstate, anymore!

Boone yes, all the time!

 

Kenton? I haven't seen a Kenton County police car in the six months that I have lived in Kenton County on the Interstate from the Boone County/Kenton County line to the Buttermilk exit, except at night, pulling off duty traffic control at the 275 construction on the bridge!

I got pulled over by one on I75 so I can assure you they are out there from time to time.
