In Carbon County, Wyoming, armed vigilantes blasted a set of three Interstate 80 electronic speed limit signs on January 6. The devices allowed officials to lower the speed limit by remote control, creating a variable speed trap as passing trucks frequently obscured the signs leaving motorists with no idea the limit had been arbitrarily lowered from 75 MPH to as low as 35 MPH for a 52-mile stretch of the highly rural road. The state's transportation department offered a $2500 reward for the identity of the individuals responsible for doing the bullet damage estimated at $23,000. Officials had applied temporary repairs to the signs by January 8.
