Toano
The village of Toano is a long-established speed trap and the James City police take advantage of the fluctuating speed limit. Coming into Toano from the west on Route 60 the speed limit quickly declines from 55, to 45, then 35. Exiting Toano heading east the speed limit lingers at 35 longer than you’d expect, finally going back to 45 well outside the village. Often the police park their vehicles near the entrance to the school on the east bound lane, within sight of the 45-mph sign. But watch out, don’t accelerate to 45 until you pass the sign! Otherwise it’ll be "gotcha" when you think the speed limit is 45 (you can see the sign, right?) and the revenue-collecting officer reminds you that it’s 35.
