Sonoita, Arizona Speed Traps
Highway 82 and Highway 83 intersection in Sonoita, AZ
I was driving from Nogales to Bisbee, AZ along highway 82. It is 55 mph or 65 mph much of the way. Just before the intersection with highway 83, the speed drops from 55 mph to 35 mph. It stays like that for only .9 miles before changing to 65mph. I missed the 35 mph sign and was told I was doing 53 mph in the 35 mph zone. I thought about fighting the ticket in court but I live far from Arizona. I wound up paying $258 to do a 4 hour online traffic school course.
Sonoita AZ US 82 west to Patagonia AZ
West on 82 GPS stated 65 speed limit…wife and I saw no speed signs that said 55…then drops to 40 then 35… We were doing 65 in what we thought 65 but officer stated he repeatedly ticketed people even truckers that stated the same…that they were doing 65 in 55 and he ticketed them. There were 3 cars ticketing people as we completed talking and getting ticketed by the officer. Area west 82 from Sonoita, AZ to Patagonia AZ.
