Lind Ave
Motorcycle Officers sit in the driveways of warehouses along the Ave. There can be from 1 to 3 Officers on motorcycles. Speed limit is 35 mph & highly enforced.
about a 1/4 mile south past the intersection of Benson Dr S(WA-515)/S21st st
Its a motorcycle cop with the gun on his bike.sometimes he hides out in one of the turn offs, but today he hit me with the laser while traveling in the other direction. The speed limit is kind of tricky on this road. Keep going south and the speed limit is 45 but the actual speed limit is 35 all the way down the hill traveling north. The cop actually u-turned in the middle of the road to follow me going south and hit me with the radar a couple of times before giving up and doing another u-turn. You can say what you want about Radar/Laser detectors but if I was without one on this day I would garantee that I would have a speeding ticket to pay.
