Saint Stephen, South Carolina Speed Traps

Speed limit drops from 55 mph to 45 and then to 35 as you approach "center" of town near railroad crossing. There’s really not much of a town here and no good reason for a 35 mph speed limit. Town cop will sit in an unmarked Crown Vic clocking passing motorists with K band radar. One saving grace is Town Ordinance 11-65 which allows them to charge you with the city "Careless Operation" law. It carries an inflated fine, but no points. Take it from someone who’s family owns a business here, the police in this town are truly horrible.
