Castro Valley, California Speed Traps

Alameda County Sherriffs park off one the cross streets on upper Center and watch the 4-way stop signs… looking for people ‘rolling’ through and making lots of stops.
This is more of "stop"-trap than a "speed’-trap, but they are still handing out tickets.

Officer parks on side of road facing uphill and waits for vehicles to come around curves. Radar reading is taken before the driver can recognize the front of the car as a patrol car. Alternatively, CHP will position above Walnut on Parker to operate radar, a second patrol car will make the stop. Active especially during morning hours when drivers are going downhill.

posted 25 mph double yellow 2 lane only long straight on an otherwise windy twisty road.E.B.R.P.(park rangers)w/radar.easy quota.

CHP hidden in bushes northside of Avenue, near Spa Shop. Second cop drives up and down the Boulevard.

CHP stands on the west side of the road. Traffic exiting the
580 freeway at Eden Canyon Road look to the left for approaching traffic and do not see him until it’s too late.
He walks into traffic to make the stop.
