Interstate 85 near State Highway 147 Durham Freeway

It’s awful here, in every direction. Mostly the mornings, but also in the evening rush hour. The speed limit changes from 65 to 55, which in my opinion is too slow, and they will bust you for 65+.

Going north on I-85, getting off on NC 147 south: Cops will wait in the median behind a barrier of small trees. A tall brick noise barrier wall is on the right, across from where the cop sits. This one is fightable, because there is no way the cop can see you and clock you cleanly in time.

Going north on I-85: Troopers or city cops will wait just past (north of) the exit for NC 147, around a bend, under the bridge, etc.

Going south on I-85: Same as above. Cops will wait under the bridge, a half mile or so past where you would exit for US 15-501 & NC 147. Or, they will wait in the median between the merge of NC 147 north and I-85 south.
