Hampton, Virginia Speed Traps

Traveling North on Big Bethel, coming to the Todds Ln. intersection…the cop sits to the right on Arlington. Arlington is at such an extreme angle to Big Bethel from that direction, he will have you clocked and be behind you before you even know what’s happening…It’s also a Speed Enhanced Zone…$200+whatever normal fin.

Later in the evenings the City of Hampton police will occassionally set up a speed trap for traffic going north bound on Fox Hill Road. They do this by parking in the 7-11 parking lot as if they were a parked car visting the store. However, they are stategically parked to monitor traffic speeds northbound and will be sitting in the car.

With the increased traffic due to the new Sentara Hampton Careplex Hospital at the end of the 2 mile long street, the Police are hot and heavy on this road. The cops hide behind other parked cars that line the street and snag you as you pull up to the hospital. They snagged me doing 39 in the 35mph zone.

Hardy Cash Drive between Executive Drive and Coliseum Drive. Posted sign reads 25 (Actual Residential Street) but looks like a through street to the hospital. Please go one block over and take Marcella Drive.

Hampton police use the empty parking lots on mercury blvd at the cross intersection of martha lee dr and mercury blvd they usually sit during morning commute and late afternoon commute also VA state police sit on mercury blvd in the enterprise car rental parking lot during odd hours of the day.
