State Route 20 near Interstate 81

Lafayette, New YorkFeb 13, 20040 Comments

Local police regularly ticket motorists who exceed the speed limit only briefly on account of the extremely hilly terrain. Rte. 20 in the region of Interstate 81 is marked with very steep hills. Signs warn motorists to use low gear when descending. The curvy, cross-road fraught route makes use of cruise control very inadvisable.
The hamlet of Lafayette has extremely aggressive police with little on their hands other than to prey on motorists who find themselves at the mercy of the steep hills which make controlling one’s speed strictly at 55 impossible. Lafayette police are notorious for going after out-of-state drivers, in particular. Lafayette uses this ruse to enhance revenues.
Drivers beware! Lafayette, NY is one of Central NY’s worst speed traps.
