Louisville, Kentucky Speed Traps

LMPD Sits in various locations near E.P.Sawyer Park.Usually have 2 or 3 radar cars. Sometimes sitting in the Parking lot of the Park facing Hurstborne behind small trees. Other times sitting across Hurstborne in Hounz Ln Park or on Hounz Ln next to entrance to Hurstborne Parkway. Also sitting in Center Medeian at top of hill near Z.Taylor school. and next to the Steve Henry scale model plane flying park. A 1.6 mile stretch of hidden surprises for speeding drivers from the LaGrange rd overpass to Westport Rd. Always run your radar detector here as they leave their radar gun on most times

Traveling either Eastbound or Westbound there are usually at least two cars that sit right up next to the tunnels. Most of the time I’ve seen green Taurus and a Red Chevy Pickup.

As you round a very gentle curve going toward Hurstbourne Lane from Embassy Square Blvd., you go through a little city called Forest Hills. The posted speed limit is 25mph, while the rest of the road everywhere else is 35mph. A sheriff sits, partially hidden by trees, at the mouth of the WalMart parking lot on the left, and you will not see him until it’s too late to slow down. Guy hands out tickets like free lunch!

New Cut road is now a 4 lane road. Speed limit is 35 and very hard to do. Police are out in the afternoons around 2 to 5 pm. This is a School Zone area too

The new extension has the turn ins for proposed developments, most of these have rock walls on both sides. Cops will sit in the ones located on a curve so that you wont see them until you’re already directly in front of the car.
