Union Ave.

Saratoga Springs, New YorkMar 31, 20110 Comments

At the end of track season (around September) the local police will set up a huge speed trap on Union Avenue from the intersection at East Ave. down to the Yaddo gardens entrance. Starting at sundown several (4-5) police cars will sit on the grass in the center divider facing both directions of traffic. They will pull over only sport or high end luxury vehicles. (Camaros, Mustangs, Corvettes, wrx’s, 300zx’s, Cadillacs, BMW, etc…) The speed limit is posted at a sluggish 30mph (which is way too slow for that area anyway), and most of traffic is flowing at 35 – 40. Sometimes the cops will let people that are local residents off easy with a non-speeding ticket, but they are really trying to squeeze every last bit out of the track tourists. At the expense of the local residents, of course.
