Ellenton, Florida Speed Traps
On 17th St E just past the Blackburn school.
They are waiting on the grass by the Palm View Condos with radar. The speed limit is 30 on a road with little activity and no one goes just 30
Interstate 75 near Exit Number 229
highway patrol 10 to 12 cars used to handle speed trap. Troopers stage their car on the on ramp and the speeders are caught in the dozens after the over pass on the down side
Mendoza Road near Ellenton-Gillette Road
Thankfully I have not been caught along this stretch, but you constantly see police cars sitting in the area. Right before the bridge going over I-75 (this is 37 Street/Mendoza Road off of Ellenton-Gilette), you can find them on either side. They normally sit in the Turner Tree Landscaping lot, hidden in the trees behind a blind corner, or they are on the other side of the hill waiting to catch speeders. I have seen as many as three cars pulled over at once.
