FM 1431

Traffic Scenery Fun Road Condition Police

Description

FM 1431 has so much going for it and has so much potential, but it is severely hampered by ridiculously low speed limits and a significant police presence.  The road is 47 miles long and extends from Cedar Park to Kingsland.  The section from Cedar Park to Marble Falls has some truely exceptional scenery with curvy roads and hills with great views.  This drive really is about the scenery more than anything else because the speed limit is a paltry 55mph even though the condition and flow of the road feels like it should be 65+.  The cops know that everyone speeds, so they're everywhere.  Best to just stick to the speed limit and enjoy the views.  The section from Cedar Park to Lago Vista has some traffic, but it's 2 lanes so the traffic really isn't a problem.  After Lago Vista it becomes 1 lane and there is far less traffic.
