Tifton, Georgia Speed Traps
US Highway 82 West near Interstate I-75
There are two cameras, one on the southbound exit off I-75 at Starbucks and one on the intersection of 82 West and 319 South. There are plans to add a third on the northbound exit onto 82 W as well. They love to send tickets for incomplete stops on right turns on red. Several wrecks have almost taken place as a result of people freaking at yellow lights and slamming on brakes.

US Highway 82 near Mile Marker 6
When traveling east on US 82, The speed limit is 45 mph. As you enter the city limits of Tifton (at the second bridge) around mile-marker 6, the city police sit behind a large shrub located next to an auto repair facility. As you approach, you can’t see the cop car until you are right on top of him. I believe in GA, municipal and county police are required to be seen from at least 500 feet away to use detection devices.

City police sit under an overpass in the shadows. This section of the interstate is part of the city limits.
