West Point, Virginia Speed Traps
10mi stretch of rte 33 east of town between West Point & rte 17
Police officers are commonly seen along this stretch of road either under way, or hiding in the bushes. Be specially wary of long vacation weekends, and holiday weekends during the summer, since this road is a major route to vacation spots on the Chesapeake bay. Also beware of officers that have already stopped someone, If you go one of them without changing lanes, they chase you down at insane speeds, and will stop you for "Failure to yield to a stationary emergency vehicle" The police along this road not only stop people for speeding, but will also nitpick any other glitch they can find like improperly hooked up trailers, dead tags & plates, or any other mechanical glitch they can find with your vehicle. Another thing they will try and nitpick is improper use of a vehicle with antique tags, since Virginia law says that an antique vehicle can only be used for pleasure and withing 250 miles of it’s regestered town.
