Troopers frequently work in pairs, so be careful about passing one if he's already busy with someone else. Troopers are usually seen on the left side, they park down in gully's which are under the overpasses. | |
Comment (2/2003): Watch out coming in and out of the toll plaza. The mile before and after the plaza is 35mph. Some coming out of the plaza and popping it up to 70 can be a very expensive experience. It's enforced semi-regularly. | |

Along Route 1A for the stretch on North Beach just north of Hampton Beach there is a guardrail in the middle with parking spaces on either side. Cops hide in the middle in a parking space next to an opening in the guardrail so that they can get people coming up the other side. | |

101 starts as a back alley with a 25 mph limit then becomes a ramp to a 2-lane expressway of sorts. Speed limit is 50 when you are on the highway. Trap is located just after where the alley turns into a ramp. I was pulled over for "46 in a 25" and I don't argue with that. Cop was cool and only gave a verbal warning but DO NOT accelerate to 50 until you are ON the highway! | |

If you're driving to or from Hampton Beach at night via Route 101, when you begin to see a major intersection in the road (the only major intersection), the speed limit drops drastically from 55 if you're coming from the east and 50 if you're coming from the west to 35. Most cars can travel through safely under 50, but anything above that, the police that lurk there at night consider it fair game. The cars can usually be found either on the left or the right side of the highway perpendicular to the set of lights that marks the intersection. Those sidestreets are perfect alcoves. It's especially tough to see them if you come from the east. I've never gotten a ticket at this intersection, but I've seen at least 10 cars pulled over in that area in the last year, and I really don't even use the highway that often. Excluding the beach itself, this stretch of highway leading to the beach is the most cop-populated and ominous in Hampton. | |
