This trap occurs somewhere within about a 100 yard distance. the two main landmarks to alert you of this are Hoyt rd. and the intersection of route 137/Westchester Ave. and Rt 172/Pound Ridge Rd. These are on either side of the area of the speed trap. The locations where the cops sit are in either the parking lot of Pound Ridge Motors, a spot that can catch people speeding through the Pound Ridge Elementary School Zone and from up Rt. 172/Pound Ridge Rd., and in the entranceway of the Pound Ridge Elementary School. When approaching from the West, or the Rt. 172/Pound Ridge Rd. side, you will pass Hoyt Rd. on your leFort At this time, it is important to slow down to the signed 40 MPH speed limit. This speed isn’t too unreasonable, but easily exceeded and when you come over the crest of the hill, the cops doing radar can catch you from afar. The cops are sitting at the base of the hill in the Pound Ridge Motors parking lot and are approximately 20 yds. into a 30 MPH zone. It is easy to not slow down in time for this because it drops dramtically in a short time.

From the other direction, it is more difficult to get caught because the only possible way to enter this piece of road is from one of two turns. this means it’s hard to take these turns at over 30 MPH going into the school zone. You are far more safe fro mthis direction.
