The area covered is within a School zone (30 MPH). The cop may give a warning if cooperative and hands are kept on the wheel unless asked for registration and license.

The trap is right where 895 & 95 South separate, and the speed limit goes from 55 to 50 on Rt. 895. They will be waiting for you at the bottom of the hill as you try to fly by doing 60 to 70. If you do not drop your speed down to 50 to 55 at the split you will get a ticket. The also set on the North bound side in the same area. You will see them stand on the side of the road right past Bayview Hospital. Be very very careful.
