Minot, North Dakota Speed Traps
on 83 north of town half way to base
car loves to sit in center lane facing base direction sits inbetween humps so you can’t notice him until you are too late
SE 42nd Street near US Highway 52 Bypass East
Either Minot PD or ND State Troopers are catching folks coming onto 42nd which is a 25mph from a 50mph on the bypass. There is no reason 42nd should be 25mph.

US Highway 83 near 30th Avenue
Look out on Hwy 83 when you are going to the Minot Air Force Base at 0600 hours daily. There’s always the same PD guy sitting up there in an Impala waiting to pick off AF personnel. The speed zone goes from 40-55 near a gas station and the cop will be waiting for you if you begin your acceleration early.

US 83 Bypass near US Highway 83
Trooper is pulled over on opposite side of two lane road facing oncoming traffic just before the stoplight at US 83 and 83 Bypass intersection. The light is a very short one and usually only allows 5-6 cars through. I have sped up to the light a number of times to make it through. Twice in the last week I saw this guy sitting there; luckily I was being good.
