Greenville, North Carolina Speed Traps
Arlington Boulevard near Evans Street
Greenville PD officers back into parking space under trees in a parking lot just past the Kmart shopping center on Arlington Blvd between Greenville Blvd and Evans Street. The officers are especially difficult to see at night in this location until it is too late.
US Highway 264
As you enter Greenville on Highway 264 East (coming from Raleigh/Wilson) when the speed limit drops from 65 to 55, there are Greenville PD officers that like to sit in the median behind shrubs especially on weekends and holidays.
14th Street near between Red Banks Rd. Stop Lights and Fire Tower Rd. Stop Lights
Go the speed limit!
Hwy 43-between Greenville and Vanceboro
Do not even consider speeding on this road. They will get you going to the beach or at least New Bern and they don’t care about an excuses. I had just passed someone going 42 in a 55 and got pulled not long after passing them. Marked and unmarked cars, mainly Craven County but both Pitt and Craven County Highway Patrol keep this road hot. It is rare that you travel this stretch and NOT see a patrolman. And would have thought I had gotten a DWI with all the Craven County lawyer letters I received. Luckily I am not a chronic speeder and if I stay clean for another year my insurance will not go up.
264E about 10 miles away from town
State Troopers like to hide behind gaurdrails after overpasses in Farmsville. Keep it to no more than 10 over.
