Hollywood, AL

[Elbert]

If you are on Hwy 72 near the north side of Scottsboro, AL, lookout for signs indicating you are in Hollywood "city" limits or police jurisdiction. Seems to be a very high concentration of traffic enforcement, from a "town" with a population of roughly 1,000 residents. Police have both marked and unmarked units.

I'm not sure what business are located within the city limits other than what you can see from the hwy...

Fair warning....reminds me of two cities in the past near Birmingham...(Kimberly and Morris)

I just drove through there twice last weekend. Cruise control is your friend on 72.

Def use cruise control, I've driven 72 10-12 times a year for the past decade. As long as you're under 10 over you won't get stopped. I set the CC at 9 over. Knock on wood, I've never been stopped. Scottsboro used to be a trap, but they've upped the limits so it's not as bad. There are a couple more, but Town Creek, btw Decatur and Tuscumbia is notorious as well.
