Crescent, Oklahoma Speed Traps

city police sit just inside city limits with radar "looking" outwards, lock-in on your speed as you are approaching, follow you on into town then cite that address as place of infraction and testify that they clocked you 2 blocks inside city limits. "Special" judge for city traffic court is complacent.

The south side of Crescent Oklahoma on the outskirts of town, the speed limit increases from 25 to 35 to 45 to 55 within about a half mile. The Crescent police lie in darkness and off the road, and to avoid the speed trap legislation, only find motorists 11 miles over the speed limit. The trap is if you supposedly speed up too soon leaving town.
