Long Beach, California Speed Traps

Tag team motor cycle cops.

going east on PCH after the 710, 2 police bikes waiting to get drivers going over the bridge.

During the afternoon rush motorcycle police hide along pacific avanue, usually near the hospital and about two blocks past the intersection of willow and pacific heading south. They also sit in front of the seven-11 at pacific and spring and catch people comming around the curve where the speed limit changes And be warned they hunt in packs

Going South on PCH after you pass the 710 freeway bridge slow down. Next few streets hold bike policemen who are waiting. Seems that there is a speed change. Especially enforced mid to end of the month.

The posted speed on Marina Dr. is 35 MPH, which is 10 miles under the survey. Speed Trap per se. No School, etc. to lower beyond 5 miles indicated by the 80% motorists’ speed of the traffic survey. I prevailed on appeal and the ticket was reversed. No change in the postings. The outside Traffic Engineer told me he was directed to lower the speed limit beyond legally permissable limits (5 miles per hr. unless certain conditions exist) thereby creating speed traps by city hall employees. Most of your main arteries, incl. Ocean Blvd., are speed traps by deliberate intention. Subpoena the survey before you go to trial. Take pics of the area showing the conditions allowing a further reduction in speed do not exist. The surveys are erroneous, stating these particular conditions exist, such as, schools, hazards are visible to a motorist, etc. Deliberate lies on the surveys. Material misrepresentation of fact. Cops hide behind the palm trees along the blvd.
