Houston, Texas Speed Traps

The speed limit changed from 35mph to 25mph. At night, there are police cars waiting near Corporate and Bellaire and will give out tickets for going 35mph

Be weary of State Troopers that often drive around the park on Barker Cypress and Westheimer in the evenings. They run pop Ka band, and they know how to catch even the most experienced spotters. They often hide “blacked out” in the ditch on the side of the road. That said, my $70 Cobra detector would pick up on the pop alert from a mile away.

As you go over the very large hill with a steep gradient, there’s an officer standing at the bottom on the right that will sit there at least once a month and write a large amount of tickets. It’s very easy to get going well over the speed limit as it takes a lot to get up the hill then even coasting down the hill will gain 10+ MPH on your vehicle.

4 Police total: One standing holding a lazer gun his partner pulling over the people and the other 2 writing tickets. The area is a construction site and these cops are right in the middle of it. Before even entering the site you have already been clocked. My ticket was for driving 30 on a 25! And while I was pulled over at least 5-6 cars were waiting to get a ticket as well…..too many for them to even handle!!! Oh and they set my court hour at 9:00 pm in downtown!! Really!

20 mph School Zone from Bissonnet to the buyou. HPD cops working in a team running lazer. They sit in a parking lot at a strip center catching speeders during school zone hours. Apartment complex hides the cop cars until it’s too late.
