Charleston, South Carolina Speed Traps

Police sit in the center median as the road goes from two lanes each way to four and sits directly in front of the sun around the corner. They like to get people who pop out around traffic going below the speed limit and really hit the accelerator.

A cop sits comfortably on a beach chair behind the bushes on the median, near the redcross building with the trunk of his ford open and pointing the laser gun on the west bound traffic communicating with 2 cops one on a bike and another in a ford pull over the speedsters at the I-526 westbound and I-26 merge

Michaux Avenue between Dorchester Rd and International Blvd. Michaux Ave. is slightly curvy and is a little over a mile long. Posted speed limit is 35mph but could be 45mph. On one section of the road if you are coming from Dorchester and going to International you can’t even see the police until you pass them. There is a small trail they like to park on. I know for a fact they use multiple different types of Radar and Laser detection devices. I travel this road about 5 to 10 times a day.

Any time of the night do not speed… I can not stress how important it is not to speed when heading towards ravanel, or leaving. All they do is ride around their looking for people to pull over.

The cops on the bridge are dressed as construction workers. After the "constructions workers" know that you are speeding, they radio in to other cops so they can pull you over.
