San Juan, Puerto Rico Speed Traps
PR1 (Ponce de Leon Avenue) & Ashford Avenue
The entrance to Old San Juan, at the Dos Hermanos and San Antonio Bridges intersection implemented a Red Camera System. Speed limit is 25 MPH, but there is no proper speed limit signs that indicate that. Photo Enforcement signs are present.
PR 17 and Calle 7 S thru Calle 13 S O
The speed limit drops from 40 MPH to 15 MPH due to the presence of a school. Red Camera and mobile radar unit are deployed. Speed signs lacks visibility. Photo enforced signs are visible.
Kennedy Avenue (Highway PR-2) Puerto Nuevo
In the stretch between San Patricio and Santurce on Kennedy Avenue, speed limit is 45 MPH. At night, particularly after midnight, the stretch is often deserted. Cops hide using radar and have issued tickets for speeds as low as 50 MPH. If you tell them the road is deserted and that it’s prudent to go at a higher speed due to crime in the area, cops become very nasty and look for reasons to issue more tickets.
baldorioty de castro ave, in miramar. along the lagoon
the 60mph speed limit suddenly drops to 45mph for a short stretch, just so a cop car hiding on the other side can target anyone they choose
