McIntosh County: Hwy 69 & Eufaula

Eufaula, OklahomaJan 24, 20032 Comments

Jan 23 2003 at 1:30PM. Driving NORTHBOUND Hwy 69, over Lake Eufala and JUST BEFORE the city of Eufala: notice VERTICAL WHITE marks on along the right side of the highway. These marks are for the AIRPLANE ABOVE you to time you! Better slow down! I had cloud cover and saw no plane, but the cop told me it was there and that no radar is involved, though my detector chirped a couple of times oddly. He said that they do random sweeps but usually do only 2 just before lunch and about 10 afterwards. Big ugly stinky SPEEDTRAP! Avoid speeding in this area, the barrier along the highway provides a false feeling of security – if you ever see white vertical lines on the highway, they are for the plane above you, slow down! Your radar detector is useless in this scenario.

airplane? this is an old post and don't think there have been any radar air patrol for awhile. But, HWYpatrol maybe located in a similar location, just as you come north over the hill.

should also watch out for the area coming out of the Eufaula Cove area just before Braums. There is a stop sign dividing the parking area from the street which makes a "y". police will sit off to the north to watch for drivers coasting thro the stop sign...especially summer evenings when lots of people at the lake.
