Thermopolis, Wyoming Speed Traps
Every inch of these pass through towns
The PD of these small pass through towns take advantage of a drastic switch from 70 MPH to 30 MPH. The cops have nothing to do here, so they ticket every person passing through that haven’t slowed to a crawl. Avoid these places, or pay their “toll”.
