tallavast rd. between old 301 and new 301
speed trap right near railroad tracks. the speed limit changes to 25 very quickly. police car parks at the small church there.
Fruitville and Tuttle
Motorcylcle cops usually sit in drive way at the Jewish Community Foundation anywhere from 8 am – 9:30 am. Mon – Fri. Police cars usually hide first street past JCF. Plently of cover in street, not so much at JCF. Radar always used.
N.Tamiami Trail at 14th street
Motor cops set on the right ide of road, at The Sarasota Bay Club, clocking South bound vehicles. They normally set there between 6:00 am and 9:00 am.
Very productive area for them. Well hidden and speed limit is highly enforced. I see them there at least once a week. I’ve seen them do over 70mph to catch someone. I guess 2 wrongs makes a right.
Lockwood Ridge Rd & La Petitte
Between University rd and Talavast rd on Lockwood Ridge, the speed limit is 35. DO IT….. FHP has been known to sit at La Petitte school, Greek Church, and driveways along the way. They have even stood right out in the middle of the road with their scanner. Just when you think they are not there anymore.. BAM… my neighbor got a $400 ticket going 44.
