Buena Vista, Georgia Speed Traps

The speed drops before you have a chance to slow down and a cop in a Crown Vic is hidden in wait to catch you. This city generates thousands of dollars in revenue from speeding tickets!

This trap has been noted back in 2010 by another user, but we had the awesome privilege of being stopped by an officer. He wrote us a ticket for 65 in a 45. I knew that we had a ticket coming when the officer came to the window with his canned speech. This is a huge speed trap and if I had more time, I would stand out there with a poster about 500 yards before the cop that reads SPEED TRAP AHEAD. This city relies on speeding ticket revenue to survive, so watch out!

There’s a black crown vic with a police officer who radars you coming into the city down this long steep grade. He sits just off the shoulder of the road, at the bottom, in the dark and there’s almost no way to see the car till it’s too late. It’s a posted 45 zone, but seems just to be a revenue maker for the small town.
