23rd/International Street near Bridge Street Hidalgo, Texas

This speed trap is located at the intersection of Bridge Street and 23rd/International Street. 23rd street is the street that exits out of the U.S. and into Mexico (via toll booths). Almost always, 9 times out of 10, there is a unit parked at the median of the left turn lane facing against traffic. If you are going too fast, you might hit the unit head-on. There is thick brush on the median right before the turning lane so the unit is hard to see. Furthermore, the speed is reduced dramatically from 45 mph to 30 mph in less than 50 yards. So there is not enough time to slow down. Also, the unit seems to usually target the Federal Law Enforcement Agents at the Port of Entry. So, while the uninsured motorists from Mexico are speeding by, local officials are handing out tickets to federal agents like candy. Be weary.
