This is a biggie just to the North of Taughanack State Park. There is a cutoff on the northbound side of 89 just past the park (heading north). If you are heading south, the speed limit drops quickly from 55 to 30 approaching the park, and almost always there is a trooper sitting there waiting.

Triphammer Road near Off campus
Cops wait on Triphammer right as you come off of the Cornell campus on the way to the mall or wherever on Triphammer. There is a white unmarked SUV and I’ve seen a black and white without any lights on top as well. They sit there and get you with the radar gun as you come around turns because it’s easy to speed on this road.
