Leesport, Pennsylvania Speed Traps
Rt. 61 & Mohrsville Rd (second spot)
Sometimes, rather than sitting in the used car lot there along 61, Smokey will sit back in the entrance to the race track, near that bend just inside of Mohrsville Rd. You cannot possibly see him until you’re passing, and he only sees you for a fraction of a second, but it must get a read. If you do get pulled over here, you’d better fight it. There’s not enough time for an accurate read, especially at the 45-degree angle (the gun’s least accurate angle).
