San Clemente, California Speed Traps
San Clemente High School
When you go north of Pico Blvd before Frontera, there’s a motocop sitting in the SCHS parking lot next to the theatre building. I saw him there a few times on the weekends too. If there’s activity at the school, reduce your speed to 25 mph.

Ave Frontera near Pico
Going DOWN very steep hill on Frontera toward HS and Albertsons. Limit is 30 and you will do 45-50 without stepping on your gas so ride your brakes! Moto cop hides somewhere (never saw him!) on the hill. Limit is also 30 going up.
Camino Vera Cruz
Motorcycle unit usually sits across from Forester Ranch Park on the left side of the street with radar gun. Is there from 3-4 times a week. Speed limit is "35" but hardly ever obeyed going down Vera Cruz. This spot is a very reliable "ticket-giver," so watch out!
