Along US 14A, at both east end and west end of town

Byron, WyomingJul 13, 20160 Comments

Police officers (one in pickup truck, one in cruiser) sit at each end of town and target the point at which the speed limit becomes 30 mph (abruptly from 70 mph). Just before town, my car (out of state plates) was passed by a person in a car with Wyoming plates. As I was entering town, I was slowing down to 30 mph, but wasn’t quite there by the 30 mph sign. Officer turns on his lights, Wyoming car and I both pull over, but Wyoming car was waved on. I received a $120 ticket, with a $10 ‘discount’ for wearing seat belts. Officer was polite. I was told to mail the ticket directly to Town Hall. Several locals from adjacent Lovell said this is how Byron pays for its 4th of July fireworks and that it is widely known that to be a speed trap. My advice: set your cruise control to 25 mph before you hit the 30 mph sign, and don’t turn it off until you pass the 70 mph sign on the opposite side of town.
