Not a specific location, just a warning for drivers going through the town:
The city of Vidor ranks fourth in Southeast Texas for revenue gained from municipal fines. Roughly 9% of the city gains revenue from this source, which includes traffic citations.

A man, his bike and his laser
Leading the way in Vidor is a motorcycle cop and the department’s one-man traffic enforcement division. He’s developed a reputation, referencing the motorcycle officer Beaumont residents love to gripe about.
“He frequently crouches behind his bike to steady his aim of a cross-haired laser speed detector that can pick out a single vehicle from a group of cars a half-mile away. Some people complain that he is trying to hide when he crouches behind the motorcycle. That’s not the case – it’s instead about accuracy.
Just because someone says I didn’t see you doesn’t make it a speed trap.”
