Overzealous police/beach patrol will give you a ticket if you drive one mph over the 10mph speed. Also, paying to go on the beach irks me as I was born here

The beach and surrounding areas near the boardwalk have really cleaned up. The downfall is that most attractions have been closed or torn down. there is not as much to do as in the past. Hopefully now that there is plently of open real estate, some nice places will fill in.
