Poway, California Speed Traps

Police generally hide in the shade in driveways on the right side when heading towards Poway Road, and are very uptight about the 45 mph speed limit. Take it easy if you’re not positive there is no cop in the area, because chances are there is (at least) one.

Police will sit in patrol car facing west bound traffic down Poway Road radaring speeding motorist. BEWARE…….

They usually have a motorcycle cop and a cruise, and the cycle cop stands off to the side of the road with the radar gun, and pulls people over into the culdesack

They will hide any where along this section looking for speeding and rolling stops. I also find that they are there a particularly large percentage of the time that there is construction going on. ("traffic fines are doubled in construction zones")

Here they are looking for people that just got off of the freeway and are driving at perfectly safe sppeds considering the lack of cars on the road this time of night and the fact that this is a 6 lane 55 mph road to begin with.
