Playa Del Rey, California Speed Traps
Culver Boulevard near Vista Del Mar Lane
location: On Culver Blvd between Vista Del Mar Ln and Jefferson. There are officers in patrol vehicles and on motorcycles who patrol the area. Sometimes they hide between parked cars, get out of the vehicle (or off of the motorcycles), and use a hand-held radar gun. They will then stand in front of you after they clock you and motion for you to pull over. The posted speed limit is 30mph, but people often go faster (resulting in a few pedestrians getting hit and killed in the last year or so). The speed limit is not unreasonable, and enforcement of it appears to be for public safety.
