Fairview Road near State Route 405 Freeway Costa Mesa, California

If you are travelling south on Fairview, cop sits at the base of the hill just south of the 405. They hide just around the right corner at the first street at the bottom, so you can't see them till you are right up on them. Really easy to go over the limit unless you brake.

State Highway 55 Freeway North near Bay Street Crossing Costa Mesa, California

Motorcycle cop sits on the right anywhere from Bay Street overcrossing to just south of the Baker offramp. Vehicles enter the start of the 55 freeway and tend to speed as the freeway is 4 lanes wide and usually light. Last couple I saw were not using radar and getting the ones who were blowing by everybody else going 85 plus.

Del Mar Street near Elden Street Costa Mesa, California

Westbound on Del Mar going towards Newport Blvd. Seems about every other week, they have 2 motorcycle cops sitting on Elden on the South side of Del Mar. They're looking for speeders (speed limit is 25), people rolling through the stop and window tint. I've been pulled over twice there for tinted windows.

Irvine Avenue near Heather Lane Costa Mesa, California

Heather Lane is in the middle of what is called the Irvine curves. Motor officers sit at the bottom of the hill on Heather lane in the shadows. This has been going on for 20 years. I always slow before going into this stretch of road. They are there about 6 times a year.
