Upper Moreland police sit in adjacent parking lots along York Road between Fitzwatertown/Terwood Road and Easton Road (RT 611). The speed limit of this 4 lane highway is posted in a confusing manner. Depending on time of day and the specific stretch of highway, it is either 20 MPH or 35 MPH. 40 MPH seems natural and appropriate. You will receive a ticket for disregarding traffic signs (the speeding signs), but not for speeding specifically. This way the speedtrap generates revenue without causing the citizens points. The officer will make it appear that he is doing you a favor by not issuing a citation that can cause you to accumulate points. In reality they do this to avoid having the citizens protest as points cost a lot of money in insurance hikes. Essentually, this policy undermines the State’s point system for ensuring only safe drivers maintain a license and it would cheat the insurance companies due to bogus risk figures, if only the posted speed limit where reasonable.
