Due to reduced funding, the Virginia State Police has ended aerial
speed limit enforcement.
The Virginia State Police retired the three Cessna 182 airplanes
that had been used for the aerial enforcement program. The planes will now be
used field training.
State police spokeswoman Corinne Geller says an hour in the air
costs about $150 for fuel and maintenance. She says the state police had to
reduce expenses because of decreased federal funding.
