Out on Bee Ridge Rd, past I-75 there’s 2 churches on your right if you’re heading East, on your left, if you’re heading West. There’s usually always a Deputy sitting at the front entrance to one of the churches running Radar and/or Laser!! Speed limit is 45 MPH!

The FHP has created an aircraft speed trap between SR 681 and SR 72 on Interstate 75. On I-75 NB, immediately after MM 200 (SR681 on ramp), the FHP has lines in the road where they track vehicles from the air. The chase cars are in the woods in the median between MM 200 and MM 203. Look for a single engine Cessna in the air.
Going southbound on I-75, the FHP has lines in the road starting just after Exit 205, and they continue down to MM 203. Again, the chase cars are hiding in the woods while the Cessna clocks the speeds from above.
This area is always populated with FHP troopers and drivers should be aware.
