MileMarker 11 295 Bypass

Sheriff’s Deputies sit and wait. Pick and choose out of multiple lanes of traffic who they want to stop when the physics of the radar are impossible to pinpoint. I personally was in the middle lane and was passed by multiple cars in the lane closest to the officer. This is certainly a speed trap, I am a police officer and know that it is impossible to pinpoint the specific car in multiple lanes of traffic with multiple cars at multiple speeds. They will teach you this in radar certification training. I am a certified radar police officer and this is a trap to raise revenue for their brand new cars, radars, computers, etc. Slow down in this area. Yes I even received a ticket and was not given any professional courtesy.

I am not sure, but I believe you are referring to the "Hopewell Sheriff's Office" writing tickets on a small stretch of Interstate 295 not far from the Oaklawn Blvd exit (Route 36). There is only about a one-mile stretch that traverses the city limits of Hopewell (although it is not really "in" the city at all) and they milk that cash cow for all they can get. This has been the "Million Dollar Mile" for at least 15 years now. Those greedy highwaymen tarnish the badge of decent cops everywhere.
