Town police will hide out in the "alley way" between Hazardville motors and the Hazard Hotel. Hiding during the AM and PM rushours, the nab atleast 2 cars a day. Speed limit is 35, but traffic flow is around 40. Also, this trap is just past an intersection, perfect to catch sppeeders running lights, so go slow and stop at a yellow to play it safe

Comment (6/2006): it is not all that uncommon to see a car pulled over or see the cop chasing a car around this trap. BE CAREFUL

Right infront of the church (which has a preschool in the rear) town officer will park all the way in the back of the kelly fradet lumber mart parking lot with only his running lights on. Speed limit is 25, but that is down from 35. Have only seen one vehicle pulled over, but this is a nightly trap. your best bet is to slow to 25 at park street for west bound traffic, and infront of the hazardville firehouse for eastbound traffic, which is at a dis advatage because the trap is on top of a hill

this road is full of traps. the speed limit starts out at 30 MPH and if not for the landfill would probibly be higher. The first trap is on the approach to the land fill. the town officer hides in the entrance to a local driving range, well hidden from view and is too late to spot until you go by him. The speed limit then drops to 25, going down a hill that is so steep, it is almost impossible to slow down. The hill takes a turn, and vualla, there on the bottom, still pretty hidden from view, is a town officer. Prevaling speed is about 45 here, so you do the math. Also, to confuse regular drivers, the trap works in the following fassion; no poliece presence, then one of those your speed signs. That lasts for about 2-3 weeks, so if u have a radar detector, you grow accustomed. Then the trap is set, so keep this in mind and go slow.

a town cop hides behind a bush in this 30 mph zone. Won't see him until you see a cop with his lights on in your rear view mirror.

the trap on abbe is easy to spot if you are turning onto abbe, but the cop can see you too. its easy to take the turn onto abbe at 45, but the speedlimit is 30. Eastbound traffic is almost always busted, because the cop is blocked from view by tall bushes. The cops at night sit there w/o any lighs on, so watch out.

This trap comes in two parts. The first part is at the begining of broadbrook road. cops will sit either under the railway truss on water st (priave road), the begining of leary rd (accross from water st, or at the turn around where people park when they go fishing. All of these arias are well hidden and spotting the cop is realy hard unless you know where to look, and even then you may miss them. Speed limit is 40, but safe speeds up to 55 can be reached, and very easily. You will get pulled over for doing 43 or higher. Part two, located about a mile down the road (where the speedlimit raises to 45) there is a church, and guess what? 45 to 25 in about 50 feet. goodluck. The cop sits in the parking lot of the church with his lighs off if at night. Cop has been known to follow cars that did 45, then pull them over before east windsor.

The Enfield PD will hate me for this one. This trap is so well consealed, it is impossible to tell if it is there or not. An unmarked Ford Taurus or Crown Victoria or Mustang will sit in the parking lot to Enfield Ford. It is most prevelent at night, but can happen at any time. At night, lights are off and they look EXACTLY like a parked show car. The Speed Limit is 40, but traffic flow is 45-55 most of the time. Anyone traveling on Hazard AVE (rt 190) should take extreme care to go the exact speed limit or risk getting a warning OR ticket.

Officer sits in the Hazardville Package Store parking lot, can't see him very well. Don't cut through parking lot to avoid traffic light and be careful with yellow light. They sit there quite often early AM
