U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit · Decided September 17, 1986 · Reavley, Johnson, Davis

Charles A. George v. City of Patton Village, Officer Hauford Identification Number 4816

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

A few months ago Charles A. George was here contending that the Texas law prohibiting prostitution was unconstitutional. George v. State of Texas, 788 F.2d 1099 (5th Cir. 1986). Now he contends that the 55 mile per hour speed limit is unconstitutional (but not on a two lane two way highway). He argues that all violators are not apprehended and that. enforcement would be unsafe. We find no constitutional issue raised in anything Mr. George says. No more does he have a right to drive over 55 mph guaranteed by the United States Constitution than does he have a *462 “right to sex” as urged by his previous appeal. The appeal is frivolous and double costs are awarded pursuant to Fed.R. App.P. 38.

AFFIRMED. DOUBLE COSTS AWARDED.
