There are more traffic police on Moroccan roads than we have ever seen, be careful and do as the locals do, stick to the speed limits. Rob got caught a few days in, dropping down a hill were it went from 80kph on the top to 60kph at the bottom with another sign half way down. We where definitely doing 60 by the second sign but a sneaky camera caught us doing 72kph at the first. Oh well 200dh and a finger wagging latter he sent us on our way.
As we said they are every were, you have been warned. The traffic police also do spot checks but being a foreign platted vehicle we never got stopped so that is a bonus.
