All along Rt. 181 (and Rt. 9). Keep speed down any time after dark. A cruiser will be moving, maybe with other cars. After dark you WILL NOT see it coming. A triggered unit will be used for an instant, thus there will be no warning.

The posted speed on the Route 9 stretch through Belchertown quickly varies from 35-40-45-35 again etc. The police car backs into the parking lot of the diner, unseen until you pass them. I was "caught" @ 5:45 a.m. when only one other car was on the road, so they are there at any time and do write a ticket, not a warning.
