Drivers will notice an increased presence at the gates because of speeding vehicles, said Tech. Sgt. Rich Jones, 27th SFS. Vehicles speeding out the gate faster than the posted 5 mph causes damage to the pop-up barriers. Speeding tickets will cost active duty personnel at least three points. Non active duty individuals will be fined $15 for speeding one to 10 miles per hour over the posted speed limit. Sergeant Jones said plans are under way to install speed bumps to further deter speeding drivers. (U.S. Air Force photo by Greg Allen)
