Federal Way, Washington Speed Traps
South 288th Street near South 30th Avenue
The motorcycle cops sit next to the church. They get you from far away. The speed limit is 35 but most people go 45 and up. The road is wide, the speed limit is too low to make money.

SW Hoyt Road near SW 332nd Street
Police hide on a side street and get you coming down a big hill. Their lasers get you before you even know what’s up. The speed limit is 35 but you have to go like 45 down the hill. Watch out!

320th Street near Decatur H.S.
Between 21st and Hoyt Road there are several hiding places that motorcycle officers enjoy using radar. Especially just west of Decatur H.S. and around the Twin Lakes Elem School.
S. 320th Avenue near 6th S. Avenue
Motorcycle officer sits across the street from Group Health and gets both eastbound and westbound traffic. If you’re heading eastbound, then your speed limit just reduced from 40 MPH to 35 MPH and you’re moving downhill. Easy money for the local PD.
1st Way near 356th Street
I’ve seen many people pulled over by motorcycle police on many different occasions. They literally park on the corner, saw 2 motorcycles just the other day parked there waiting. They love to get people from 7:30 a.m. on…Slow down in this area…
