Bastrop, Louisiana Speed Traps
Hwy 425 @bonner ferry bridge
Coming southbound the speed limit drops from 65 to 55 at this bridge. Cop sitting at the end of the bridge. He followed me almost 1/2mi before he actually pulled me over, then wrote the ticket for speeding at the bridge even though I began to slow down when I saw the speed limit sign, he’d already radared me. BS
State Highway 139 near school board office
The speed limit dips to 25… The road is four-lanes. Its hard to go 25. The cop is usually parked in the school board office at night. Sometimes during the day, there is a small shed on the side of the road the cop parks in. I usually it there every other day.

US Highway 165 near Point Pleasant
As you come into town on 165 from the south (Monroe, Sterlington) you will come to a big bend to the right. This is the area refered to as "Point Pleasant" where there was an old French trading post. There are now bars, a convenience store and a truck stop in the curve. The limit drops quickly to 35 and the police are waiting there, ticket book in hand.
