AND still a hugh money pot for Hopewell City Sheriff. VA legislature failed to stop cities from engaging in speed trap enforcement, so for another year, crime in Hopewell increases while Deputies are put on speed trap enforcement on the 2 small strips of I-295 that just happen to run through the city. The SO uses marked and unmarked cars sit at the end of the stretch of highway inside the city lines. And STILL, no accidents have occured on this stretch of I-295. JUST BEWARE. when you See the Hopewell City Limit signs (there are 2 small stretches both N & S lanes) just slow until you enter Prince George Co.
