State Route 1

Exiting I-295 onto Rt.1 near Martin’s Point and entering Falmouth, I have seen/heard of/been caught in a trap with one police car hiding behind a snow bank or something else, and at least 3 more waiting to exit the Martin’s Point hospital to nab drivers. The speed limit drops from 45mph to 30mph after you exit the off-ramp,and is coming down a hill. Almost everyone is travelling well over 30mph, and it is completely safe to do so. I got nailed going 43 in the 30 zone, and there were already 2 cars pulled over and I saw the next car that came behind me get pulled. It is as blatant, pointless and aggravating as can be. Nobody is doing any harm and you get a $185 ticket or the joy of losing time from work to fight it. Thanks Portland!
