GA 400 Expressway near Exit Number 10, 11, 12

Alpharetta, GeorgiaMay 03, 20070 Comments

GA 400 has a posted speed of 55 in the area but not one car in a 100 is even close to that. The Alpharetta police are incredibly aggressive and often have two cars out, one with radar/lidar and a chase car. Plus, look for constant patrolling in this area. It’s shooting fish in a barrell since they could stop anyone. Hard to figure the slow speed in this 4 lane area in most places when equally congested areas closer to Atlanta have 65mph limits. Easy to get stopped by these guys, they will absolutely get you so be on guard everywhere in Alpharett and obey the speed limits, turns, don’t ‘try to make it’ though lights. Saves lives I’m sure but it’s brutal on wallets…

State Highway Old Milton Parkway 120

Alpharetta, GeorgiaDec 25, 20050 Comments

From SouthBridge Parkway to the intersection of Old Milton and Northpoint Pkwy. For the past few years the Alpharetta Police TEU have been setting up all kinds of speeding traps. Typically, since Old Milton has many shopping centers on it they wait right on the turning lanes on to the road. They usually use there black Crown Vics or their new Empalas, which makes them very hard to see at night. They usually set these traps at night any where from 8PM to the early morning hours. With all the shopping centers, lights, and other surrondings its just very hard to spot them since the road is virtually straight. There usuallydoing this in sets of threes. The cars will line up together so when you see them at first your only going to see one car and not the others until you drive right pass them. The speed limit is a bit too low for that area, its 45, but its tempting to do 55-60 on it. To be fair the speed limit should be at least 50 on the road.

Providence Road near Mayfield Road

Alpharetta, GeorgiaJul 15, 20050 Comments

Coming off of Mayfield Road, where the posted speed limit is 45 mph, west onto Providence Road where Mayfield forks, the speed limited changes to 35 mph. There are two signs, one right after Mayfield and one right past Bates. However, the sign immediately after leaving Mayfield is obstructed from the driver’s perspective by tree limbs, and there is no other indication that the speed limit decreases. Furthermore, the speed limit is 35 mph for only 9/10 mile until you leave the City of Alpharetta limits. At that time the speed limit changes back to 45 mph where it stays for the remaining 6 miles of Providence. A marked City of Alpharetta police SUV will sit at the stop sign at Lankin Road (subdivision) appearing to be a vehilce preparing to enter traffic. About the time you round the curve at Bates Road, they’ve got you on laser.
