mile 25, I-49, see them on Google Streetview!

As numerous others have noted this is a well-established speed trap. I know of a $165 stop for 78 and another ticket for 73! But to see how really bad it is, check out streetview on Google maps where you will see two of Washington’s finest waiting. These guys must live out there on the interstate:

Yep, two female officers in 2 cars sitting there in I-49 stopping cars every few minutes on a Sunday morning. They got me doing 80 in a 75 zone and I got hit with a $165 ticket. If you look at a map of the town, you will see a thin strip of land extended across I-49 just for the purpose of ticket revenue. You can see it was planned many years ago.
