State Route 500 near NE Thurston Way

Vancouver, WashingtonOct 03, 20070 Comments

Several mornings per week around 7:30am I’ve see a motorcycle police officer standing by hit bike with a [laser?] hitting west-bound traffic on SR-500 toward downtown Vancouver. He is on the crest of the SR-500 hill (right where it goes over Thurston Way) just a few meters past the offramp. You cannot see him (due to the 4th plain overpass blocking the line of sight) until it is too late and he can hit you with the laser. I have also seen police cars with radar on the downside of this same hill in the morning commute as well. This is a heavily-utilized speed trap during both rush hours.
