Hilton Head Island, South Carolina Speed Traps

Greenwood Security sets up on Queens Folly Road just past the Palmetto Dunes offices, and loves to nail cars just before the cross the bridges towards the Hilton Resort. These are "rent-a-cop" securtiy guards, but can issue valid South Carolina tickets.

They hide in the median, or float in traffic. Speed limit is only 55 on this 4 lane divided highway. This is just past a long stretch of all day trafficjams on way to island so drivers have a tendency to hit it on this highway.

Beaufort County Deputy Sheriffs sit and wait at the toll area where the speed is reduced from 55MPH to 30 MPH. They will sit in a closed toll booth and get you when you come into the toll area.
