Lapalco Boulevard

The entire part of Lapalco BLVD in Westwego is a haven for speed traps. Heading east on Lapalco from Marrero, be very vigilant once you get into Wego. The Westwego cops hide in no one particular place. They might be on the levee (next to impossible to see them coming from the west), on the side of the road, or near/under the bridge where Westwego turns into Nine Mile Point. In the day it’s fairly easy to spot, but be careful at night. The road is fairly dark and makes for good cover. They like to hide under the bridge and gun you as you coast down, not thinking of hitting your brakes. The speed limit is 35, underrated for that road. Sometime’s there will be two to four cops writing tickets. Often you can get away with 5 miles over, but I’d recommend no more than 4. Ten over and they will get you. One good indicator is the flow of traffic, if people are creeping, the patrols are probably out.
