Atlanta, Georgia Speed Traps
Interstate 75 near Moores Mill Road, Exit 106, either northbound or southbound.
Georgia State Patrol situates themselves on Interstate 75 near the Moores Mill overpass, either on the northbound, or southbound side of the highway. Traffic is comming from a posted 65 mile per hour zone into a posted 55mph zone. Traffic is also comming around a blind curve and a rise in the grade of the highway. The officers are positioned so that they can capture the speed of motorists as they are comming out of a curve, and are going down a slight downgrade.
Interstate 75 S around the Cleveland Avenue exit
The posted speed limit is 55 MPH, well below the common flow of traffic which is normally between 70 to 80 MPH. Many officers (Atlanta P.D.) appear on exit ramps (mainly to the right of traffic) as well as to the left of the HOV lane within this area.
I-75 N between Ford Factory and Cleveland Ave exit
Driving north on I-75 to Atlanta, the trap begins after passing Ford Factory, motorcycle cops sit and wait for speeders coming down the hill just before Cleveland Avenue. They are there everyday I come home in the later afternoon.
Peachtree, Just North of I285, heading SOUTH
Just heading shouth, past the last exit before I285, as you crest the hill there’s a police car sitting there, has been there 4 out of the last 5 evenings….around 8ish
I-75 North near or around the top of the hill for the Langford Pkwy exit. Also Langford Pkwy exit on I-75 Southbound under the overpass.
Officers travel in flattop patrol cars in the far right hand lane, or on the right hand shoulder with the door open, picking off unsuspecting motorists as they reach the top of the hill (I-75N), or very inconspicuous motorcycles. It is very possible to not see them until it is too late, especially in high traffic. When you are nearing this area, beware of your surroundings…they come from nowhere!
