Bristol, Rhode Island Speed Traps
Hope Street – Agave Restaurant before Sip and Dip
Speed limit dips to rediculously slow speed of 25mph. Normal safe speed of traffic is around 35mph. Bristol finest sit with there radar and have easy pickings, as the limit is way too slow
Coming into Bristol off the Mt. Hope Bridge
Do not coast down the bridge, you’ll pick up too much speed…it’s 25 MPH at the bottom and the cops sit on the left side hidden in the old turn around. I see at least 2 a week and I don’t go over that much.
Metacom Avenue
The police sit in the parking lots after the traffic light and get you right before you get on the highway. They like to stop out of state cars for the extra charge of $50.

Chestnut Street near Mt. Hope High School
Near the high school football field is most common. The road is so wide, it is easy to go too fast. Regular 25 MPH, with school 20 MPH. Look out coming up the hill heading east. Could be any time of day depending on quota needs.
