Speed limit is 30mph. The 50th precinct uses this little straightaway for generating revenue, especially around the holiday season.
1- off ramp from Van Cort. Pk. So. to B’way north, there is an officer standing on the curb of the triangle checking each vehicle for seat belt, cell phone and to make sure you come to a complete stop. This is usually in the AM rush hour.
2- in the evening rush hour, anyone with a busted taillight gets pulled over. You often see 2 or 3 cars at a time pulled over.
3- The left turn lane on B-way northbound to W. 242 st (to go “up the hill” to Riverdale). If you “cheat” and straddle that left turn lane, you’ll get nailed. There is a Dunkin Donuts across the street under the elevated subway (where it ends there). There are officers not only in squad cars, but on foot as well to nail you. The precinct in only 4 blocks away. This strip of road is the trap of all traps in the NW Bronx!

BEWARE! Bloomberg needs money. The “Five-O” is the revenue collector.
