Milpitas, California Speed Traps
Interstate 880 near State Highway 237
Southbound 880 at the 237/ Calaveras intersection. While traveling southbound 880 there is a HOV flyover to the 237 west. This is also where the southbound 880 HOV lane ends. The Highway Patrol officer sits between the concrete barrier and the "End HOV" sign with his radar. Since is a long horizontal curve you don’t see him until he has you on radar. This spot is where traffic gets moving after the westbound 237 cars turn off. He is looking for the carpool violators and lead foots like myself. There is an officer there in the morning at least once a week during my daily commutes. Enjoy.
S. Park Victoria Drive near Edsel Drive
Milpitas PD motorcycle cop will roll into trash pickup driveway at Randall Elementary school, utilizing radar guns. It does not occur often – maybe twice per year – but while there they enforce strictly.
Jacklin Road near Escuela Parkway
Several units will be perched on Jacklin, just east of Escuela all with radar. Sporadic but strict.
Calaveras Boulevard near Able Street
Police Officer in car or on motorcycle often tuck into pull off betwwen two overpasses over the local railroad tracks. As the speed limit changes many times in a short distance on this boulevard going from 40mph down to 35mph and back up to 40mph and again back down to 35mph all in a less than two mile stretch it is easy to be going the wrong speed limit as you pass the officer.
Dixon Landing Road near Milmont Road
The cops will sit on the corner of Dixon Landing Road and Milmont on a motorcycle. They will nab speedsters and red-light runners. They will show no mercy if they pull you over.
