Legal posted speed 75 mph. 92 Cadillac on cruise control reached group of slower moving cars and started passing at top of hill double divided highway and speedomete hit 80 just as I saw the trooper car 1000 yards down the road. Pulled in around traffic then was pulled over by highway patro officer. Stated I was clocked at 91 mph. Car speedometer only goes to 85 plus had just checked it out minutes earlier using watch and mileage markers did 1 mile in 45 seconds and previously speedomete had checked out in comparison to the signs on the road showing your moving speed. Officer said he'd reduce to 86 mph so fine was only $75 instead of $150 but know I did not go over 80. Why do they lie?

Comment (12/2002): keep it at 84 m.p.h and you should be safe

Comment (3/2004): At night UHP sits on median completelty dark so you can't see their cars until you are right there.

Comment (2/2004): Beware of mile marker 41 into Beaver from Cedar City or leaving Beaver into Cedar City

Comment (04/2008): This is the most famous (infamous) speed trap in Utah. Don\'t exceed 80mph 10 miles north or south--especially north--on I-15.

Consider this area the most heavily patrolled along I-15. Slow to 75mph within ten miles north or south of Beaver. Southbound, patrolmen hide in the median on the decline into town. Northbound, a car is usually hiding in the median about 3 miles from town. Out-of-staters can count on being pulled over within ten miles over the 75mph limit.
