Route 12 in the area of Spyglass Rd. (northern end of town)

Representative of Dare County Sheriff’s Department was hidden from sight near Spyglass Rd. He pulled over two vehicles and claimed both were traveling at 54 mph in a 35 mph zone. However, the citation was written only for "exceeding the posted speed limit". Similar to the description of the Corolla, NC speedtrap, letters from various law firms arrived within a week. The lawyers charge $275 to have the citation changed from "exceeding the posted speed limit" to "making an unsafe maneuver". The firm I spoke to handles 50 – 75 of these cases per week! The bottom line is that the initial charge of traveling 54 in a 35 zone was an absolute fabrication and the County will change the name of the infraction as long as they get their $115 fine.
