Questa, New Mexico Speed Traps
All thru town. Local cops wait at the bottom of the hill.
Cops looking for out of state plates. Only place to fight ticket is in Taos, so you don’t fight the ticket..the whole town is 35 mph, the local PD is sitting on the bottom of the hill just waiting.
east/north bound to san luis valley
After coming down hill into Questa, speeds drop from 45 to 25. the trooper’s radar was on opposite side of road. radar was clocked at 20 over, this was not true. My vehicle would have had to slam on brakes with child in the rear seat. I later reported incident to Albuquerque state patrol, they did not see my vehicle lurching to a stop. they of course agreed with the officer. just beware start going 25 way before entering this sad town.
In town 35 MPH speed zone
These police officers will ticket you for 5 miles over. Ticket happy cops in this quaint little village. Tourist bewarned
About a 1/2 mile north of the Questa stoplight on Hwy 522
There is a slow school blinking light that sometimes blinks even on non school days indicating a slowdown to 15mph in a 45 mph zone. Cops will ticket with radar even when school is not in session. Beat it in court.
