Hollywood, California Speed Traps

Motorcycle cops hide behind large trash recepticles or behind tall hedges with a radar gun. Because this area is residential, though highly traveled, because it leads you straight to the heart of Hollywood, many tickets are given out. Practically $350.00 a pop! Speed limit is 35 and everyone drives throught this very prominent area speeding. Slow it down because they are watching!

This is where Western becomes Los Feliz Blvd. The speed limit is 35 mph. The police camp out in the driveways of the homes with driveways to the street between Western and Vermont. They are very well hidden.

Two motorcycle cops sit at Delongpre Ave which is close to the La Cieniga Blvd and catch all of the Fountain speeders. Speed is 35 mph and very easy to go over

In this speed trap usually 1-2 West Hollywood traffic cops on motorcycles hide in the alley of the Luckman Plaza building constantly radaring motorists going eastbound on Sunset Blvd. I estimate that this speed trap has been going on for about a year as I observe it every week from my office across the street. The traffic cops are there usually 2-3 days a week, and when they are there, they are constantly giving speeding tickets. I’m not sure how this works legally since the speed they are obtaining is of motorists when they are in Beverly Hills City limits and the cops are positioned in West Hollywood, right after the border. Their location is almost exactly across from the Joss restaruant in my building. Today, for example, from 10:00 to 10:30 AM I’ve seen 3 motorists pulled over by these cops.
