Aliso Viejo, California Speed Traps

As you travel north bound down a steep hill, at the bottom of the hill on the left side there is a driveway that they sit in and get you on radar as you come over the hill.

Sits in exiting driveway of church and shoots up El Toro Rd.

As you pass the S corners going downhill and enter the half mile long straight away, the Officers park in the entrance to a Gated Community right at the next bend. They can hit you straight on before you can even see them, by the time you do and think you have time to slow down, they are getting ready to pull you.

Ka-Band Radar at the North Bound 73 (between Aliso Viejo and Newport Beach) toll plaza for fastrak users. Cruiser or Motorcycle sits about 250 yards from the FasTrak transponder structure and waits for a speeding or non-FasTrak user with paper or no license plates. I see the officer about 3 out of the 5 days a week I commute.

Stationary CHP officer sits at bottom of hill in valley nearest El Toro road exit on 73. Officer utilizes a Golden Eagle Ka band instant on, same direction, fastest vehicle radar unit. This unit is capable of obtaining your vehicle speed from over 2,500 feet and picks out the fastest moving car. The officer will take a reading from an extreme distance, watch for the quickest vehicle in the group and site that driver. It appears that speed up to 75mph don’t usually grap attention. CHP also sit around blind turns on 73 with same strategy.
