On weekend nights starting around 11 there are 3 speed traps. The first is at Antonios restraunt, the cop backs into a corner of the lot. Continuing towards Dupont right before the bridge is another, the cop sits back with some cars at a car lot. The last one is right after the bridge, the cop sits in the empty lot back against the trees.

Comment (4/2003): I don't think they still sit at the car lot anymore. However, the one after the bridge is no BS, I got nailed there a little over a year ago. I didn't even see the cop sitting there.

Comment (10/2003): The trap at Antonio's is definitly real. A little while back i got nailed for going through in front of there going just a bit faster than i should have. Watch out these guys can be tricky and Avoca officials can be harsh, so don't try to agrue with the officer that pulled you over.
