Many blind turns. Cop eyeballed me, no way he got me on radar coming around a blind turn on a downhill. I was caught going 66 in a 50. Clean record and all--no help for this NYS driver. | |

As you leave Brattleboro and come around a curve by the Brattleboro Drug Retreat and the road goes straight, the cops had about four cars and half the force waiting in ambush. They pulled over every car in my line of traffic and gave us all tickets. It was Sunday morning about 7:30 am and I believe most of the cars were heading up to ski at Stratton. The cop was clearly enjoying presenting the tickets and was patronizing even though I didn't say a word and politely handed him my documents. After he gave me the ticket, I calmly told him I hadn't received a ticket since 1981 and he chuckled, "Now you have two." | |

The area in front of the big white church, about 1 mile west of the interstate. The local cops sit here looking for out of state cars with ski racks. This is a 30 MPH zone, and it seems very slow when you've just got off the interstate. The cops sit in plain view by the church, but usually under the cover of darkness. | |

officer with laser sita atop a hill 2-1/2 miles prior to the officers pulling over the violating vehicles. Vehicles are pulled over into a mini rest area (pull-off). Even if you are not speeding, you can get a ticket. I found out that they are in training (7-29-04), they ticketed me for 74mph. But my cruise control was set to 55mph for the entire time down RT91 south. | |

This area is posted at 25 MPH. The cops sit in a parking lot mixed in with the other cars, and get cars headed in both directions. I heard someone was going 30 MPH at four in the morning and still got a ticket. | |

This trap is located just as you come around the sweeping curve before exit 2. The officer will be in a U=Turn in the middle of the highway. Be careful because he/she will see you before you see them. They will tell you that it is a dangerous curve, and your speed is too fast. | |

Driving north on I-91, just after you pass mile marker 13, you will be going up a hill. At the crest of the hill on the right shoulder of the road on the far side of the guard rail, there is a depression in the ground. When state troopers park their cars in this depression, it is absolutely impossible to see them. They use radar. Sometimes two troppers are in the "hole", one using radar, the other one in his car ready to take off after you if the first trooper gets you with the radar. They are there especially on Friday nights just waiting for tourists from MA, CT and NY. They'll probably let you go at 70mph, but anything over that and they will definitely go after you. Please take heed of this one, because I promise you they will definitely get you. It is impossible to see them. Remember, right after mile marker 13. Good luck. | |
