Hampton, Florida on 301   Hampton, Florida

This is entrapment. Got ticket for 66 in sudden 55 zone. Was rolling in traffic and the majority of people don't know about the sudden speed drop so they can just pick car after car. And they will push your ticket up so it's at least 10mph over. That's a ticket of $191. The whole thing is a scam to create revenue and should be illegal. If you get a ticket here fight it and complain to your legislators. There is no justification from a safety standpoint to harass citizens like this.

Right at the intersection of 301 - in Hampton   Hampton, Florida

The speed limit drops from 65 to 55, if you blink you'll miss the sign - it comes right up on a traffic light (just recently installed - probably to increase traffic fines). Have been driving this stretch for 4 years commuting back and forth from St. Augustine, FL to the Univ. of Florida. They got me this morning - I couldn't believe it. I swear I was going over 62 mph. My driving record is (was) spotless. I tried to explain this, the officer was polite enough - said "I'll see what I can do for you". What he did for me was cite me for 67 mph in a 55 mph zone (if they get you for over 10 mph, the ticket amount ramps up) - a $191 fine. Thanks a lot officer! Unfortunately I cannot avoid this stretch of highway until I graduate. I will make a point of not buying any gasoline, food, etc. along this stretch of 301. I drive over 40,000 miles a year (with my regular job) across the entire SE. This stretch of about 30 miles from Starke, FL - the intersection of Hwy 16 and 301 to Waldo is the worst excuse for abuse of authority (police) that I have ever encountered.

U.S. 301 and County Road 18   Hampton, Florida

Didn't even notice intersection, gps said 63 mph. City officer wrote ticket for 65 in 55 zone. Was stopped in Alachua County. Not sure the legality there. base fine goes from $25 for 6-9 mph over to $100 at 10 mph. I guess they think I won't fight this. City limits is only 730 feet on US 301. To see definition of speed trap look at Hampton Florida city limits on google earth. Florida has very liberal public records law, you can request everything, radio logs, radar logs, officer personnel file and more. Officer wrote on ticket he was 612.8 feet from me when clocked, I do not believe I was in the city limits at that point based on where he likes to sit. If county court railroads this it will get appealed to circuit court.

U.S. Hwy. 301 at County Road 18   Hampton, Florida

A few years ago Hampton put a traffic light on U.S. Hwy. 301 at the intersection to their town and squeezed the posted limit down to 55 from 65 for approx 1/4 mile. In the southbound lane of U.S. Hwy. 301 a deep red Chevy Impala Super Sport, with no markings, or a white Ford police interceptor, also unmarked, sits in a spider hole in a driveway just about 25 yards south of the traffic light in Hampton at U.S. Hwy. 301. If one is not paying attention it is easy to miss the sqeeze down in speed that once was 65 mph. The white Dodge SUV is gone and replaced with the red Impala. Same for the north bound side excepting they hide on the south side of the intersecion for north bound traffic behind a small grove of trees. The next town southbound is the nationally infamous Waldo.
