San Jose, California Speed Traps

Cop pulling people over on E. Santa Clara St for speeding

Motorcyclist police officer in the shade of trees (difficult to see on sunny days) using laser speed gun. Standing on Vía Cordura, and pulling people over on Avenida Grande.

lidar catches you going downhill under an overpass for maximum effect. 2 cops to motion you over. All computerized, 5 minutes from motion to signature, I’ll bet they make 10 grand today. All this while violent crime is soaring in SJ.

Motor cops often go around and give people tickets for speeding in school zone (when there is not a single student around.) I just got a ticket last month, ridiculous.

CHP off on the shoulder behind the pillars, using lidar to catch speeders on Southbound 101 where Story Road overpass goes over the freeway. Seen on some Saturday mornings.
