The State Highway Patrol sometimes post a car on Columbus Road in the middle of this stretch of road, a location just after the speed limit changes from 45 to 35. This allows them to catch inbound traffic as the speed limit drops from 45 to 35, and catch outbound traffic who are not paying attention to their speed as they drive downhill away from town. The problem is not with the city police (who exercise discretion in their ticketing), but specifically with the State Highway Patrol which tends to ticket indiscriminately.
