215 heading North
Speed trap with one LVMP Motorcycle on the Desert Inn and Sahara overpass and then two – three Motorcycle cops on the Charleston off ramp. They radar in the speeds on the overpass and radio it in to the motorcycle cops on the off ramp.

Yes in april I saw 7 motocycles pulling people over 65 MPH! A few passed me as I was going 65. It's questionable that the Cops where for safety reasons. They probably pulled in thousands that day for the police & city of Las Vegas. On the 215 4 lanes limited traffic. IS this area a safety hazard or just a money grabbing ploy by the financial strapped city. No wonder so many are fleeing Las Vegas
With fewer Nevada drivers on the roads and a smaller number of Las Vegas police officers patrolling the streets, wouldn’t a decrease in the number of Clark County traffic tickets be expected? We would, assuming that driver behavior didn’t change markedly among those drivers who remained on the roads and noting that Nevada traffic laws did not change over the one-year period. With a smaller force overseeing a smaller volume of drivers with no other forces boosting driver haste, reckless driving, or other moving violations, the only remaining explanation is that police officers have been pressured to issue more Nevada traffic tickets in order to help cash-strapped municipalities to fill holes in their budgets.
