Wakefield, Rhode Island Speed Traps

Cop lurks in the bushes, you won’t see him ’til it’s too late.

The speed on Rt. 108 n drops from 45mph to 30mph just before getting to the Stop and Shop plaza. There is almost always 1 or 2 cops waiting for people who miss the signs.

Police hide near the school

Cruiser sits off the roadway in a small private turnaround. Runs radar and laser. Speed limit is 25mph and tickets have been issued for as little as 4 mph over the limit (just ask my wife). Hard to see until too close. They also keep the gain set low so a radar detector will not be of any use UNLESS you are smart enough to keep someone directly in front of you.
