Chula Vista, California Speed Traps

Travellin east on E Street towards Bonita, right aftet Hilltop you decend down hill and as you turn the corner the speed limit is 30mph and a host of police are sitting in the parking lot on the right side of E Street, by the pizza shop zapping you before you even see them at the bottom of the hill…my wife got a ticket there recently..$207!

Motorcycle officers hide in the left-hand turn lanes waiting for people to drive across the intersection near Southwest College.

The cross roads are East H St. and Otay Lakes Rd., there’s a High School caddy-corner to the college, there are no signs posted to slow to 25 MPH, but as per DMV regulations, anytime there are children present near a school, the speed limit should be 25.

The speed limit for that area is 40 MPH.

BEWARE! The motorcycle cops are hard to spot because they sit in the left-hand turn lane and hide behind other vehicles making the turn.

Try to avoid this area. I’ve gotten two tickets. Coming from the East, you have increase speed to get up the hill.
the speed is 35 miles per hour then flattens out where the speed trap is. So once you get up the hill, you have to
slow down. The area is where a high school is and there is
a stop light, but not on all the time. I got a ticket at
10:00 at the top of the hill before the high school.
There are 6-7 police cars waiting for you. One radar officer. I was just going through a green light at Rutgers and proceeded to increase speed as soon as I noticed the police cars parked on the right side I slowed but the radar
caught me. I was flagged down and one officer ran in the middle of the street yelling. I was shocked and scared out of my wits. They guided you into the ticket area in front of residential homes. This street is two lanes and I always see the cops in this particular area.
Giving their tickets. It is July 18, 2003 the high school is on summer break. So this definitely convinced to me that this is a money generating trap for the city. Come on 6-7 Police cars! That’s riduculous. I thought there was an accident.

I will never go this way during the am from 6:00 to 3:00pm.
Even though it will take me longer.

Twice I got a speeding ticket, same area. First time, hiding behind bushes, but the second time there was a large landscaping van parked on the side, I could not see anyone around the van, until he came from in front of it with his radar. You could not see either one of their motorcycles. They hide regularly in this area. I avoid Telegraph Canyon because of how sneaky they are.

No lights at all. Very dark area makes it camouflaged on side of road. Unable to see police car until 1/4th of a block or less from it. Able to use radar farther than driver can see since in a dark area.
