Asheville, North Carolina Speed Traps
I-40 MM 24 Lake Junaluska area
I drove past the mother of all speed traps the other day. As I drove eastbound on I40 toward MM24, I passed 4) Haywood County officers with cars stopped on the westbound side all within 1 mile of each other. Then my V1 began alerting as I got closer to exit 24, and I spotted another Haywood County cruiser hiding on the westbound on-ramp. Then I noticed yet another of the same on the bridge over the interstate hitting cars going both ways as they approached and passed. Then as I continued past Exit 24 eastbound I saw two more cruisers with cars stopped on the eastbound side.
