Livermore, California Speed Traps
Portola Ave
Several drivers pulled over within 30 minutes getting tickets.
580 Eastbound El Charro Road
Not a speed trap per se, but the CHP is hiding so when you slow to take the right turn, he stops you for running the red light saying you have to stop and then turn. Granted, there is no sign stating that you have to stop at the red, or turn on green only.
I don’t know if they are allowed this, but it is definitely a trap. By the time he finished my ticket and I found a safe place to turn back around on the freeway, another car was pulled over.
Concannon Blvd & Epson Street
Not a speed trap but a Stop sign advisory. Livermore PD may sit on Epson street (between Holmes & Arroyo) and watch for cars going either direction on Concannon Blvd to make sure they come to a complete stop. Eastbound on Concannon toward Tesla Road is more targeted; if you are westbound heading toward Holmes, you should see the police car/motorcyle and no excuse to get stopped. Pause for at least 1 second after coming to a complete stop, otherwise the officer will cite. I was behind 1 driver slow then roll through and he was pulled over.
N Mines Rd between First St and East Ave
Theres Motorcycle Cops that hide by Lowes hardware waiting for people to speed down the overpass, and on the south side of the overpass, theres an officer who hides on his motorcycle in the bushes with his radar gun. Apparently residents asked him to monitor "Commuter Traffic".
Hwy 580 East bound, any on off ramp in Livermore
This is a unusual!! Livermore PD actually giving speeding tix on highway. Usually its the CHP and at 6 am. City must be hard up to actually set up traps on CHP turf!!!
