Elko, Nevada Speed Traps

From the exits East Elko (303) to West Elko (298) there is almost always a highway patrol car. The speed limit goes down to 65 from 75, and the way the land is people who are crossing the state don’t see the patrol car until it is to late.

NHP uses elko for training for the north east part of the state. The speed limit drops to 65 Mph through elko on I-80 and there is usually an NHP officer out on just that stretch all the time. Idaho street in the city of elko changes from 35 to 25 so many times it’s not funny. It is a major revenue maker for the city. Just drive the whole thing 25, or one of the sneaky signs will get you.
