Bremerton, Washington Speed Traps
13th Street
13th St from High Ave. to Chester in front of the High School and behind the college there is a 2 to 3 block stretch with posted speed limit of 20MPH in the school zone. this extends for an additional 6 blocks around the college. Police generally have 2 motorcycle and 1 or more squad cars sitting on the side streets behind fences and trees to the south of 13th St barely in view to the vehicle’s driver or passenger. Any vehicle operating at more than 3MPH over will be pulled. This is especially true during early morning Fall and Spring seasons.
Lebo Blvd. Sheridan Road to Wheaton Way
As one takes Tracyton Beach Road NW along the Dyes Inlet towards Bremerton several speed traps exist. Once you pass Sheridan Road Tracyton Beach Road turns in Lebo Blvd. The speed limit turns 25 MPH in a residential neighborhood and this is enforced by the Bremerton Police Department. The street is wide. As one proceeds towards to Wheaton Way, there are several parking lots on the south side of Lebo where Bremerton Police Department lurks usually with their radar guns. There are also numerous side streets and alley ways that empty into Lebo Blvd. Speed limit is strictly enforced. The last stretch of Lebo Blvd. near the YMCA turns into 20 MPH during daytime hours. During one 40 minute period about 5 months ago while sitting at a cafe at the corner of Lebo Blvd and Wheaton Way, I noted that the Bremerton Police Department scored "6 kills" by issuing traffic citations to unsuspecting drivers.

Hwy 3 south aproaching Kitsap mall exit
The police will generally have several cars lined up on the on-ramp just before the Kitsap mall exit and a car will generally be hiding behind a large highway sign that is attached to the bridge. It is possible to see the car from a distance away but you must be looking for it! Generally the hood of the car can be spotted before you get too close. Good luck and make sure you drive friendly in Kitsap Co.
