This one is just east of the county line. As with any good speed trap is is located where you will inadvertently speed up. This is mountainous terrain and the trap is set at a place where you can see a half mile ahead when coming from the West. There is very little traffic and you may not notice that the grade is just steep enough that if you don’t brake you will exceed the speed limit. No matter how safe it appears watch the speedometer. They are waiting for you.
