Eastbound: Right after Victoria Street, the cops have cameras up on the bridge above Marine, first corner after the little street plaza is where the cops are hiding.
Eastbound: After Kerr St. and before Boundary is a smooth section where cops love to chase car instead of setting up cameras.
Westbound: Immediately after Kerr and before Elliot, cops follow car again.
Westbound: Alley before Elliot, another point and shoot location.
Westbound: Victoria and SE Marine. *** Latest hotspot, the cops love sitting at that corner.
Question: Is it okay to post photos of exact spot with cops at work on here?
Northbound at Knight & 60th. You should really slow down once you have finished crossing the bridge deck and seeing all those 50km/hr signs.
Southbound at Knight & 45th. Slow down after crossing 41st Ave.
Northbound at Knight & 33rd Ave to King Edward. Very random on which street they pick. But that part of Knight is slopping down. Super easy to go over speed limit even without stepping on the gas.
Southhbound on Knight bridge deck just right at the island next to the merge area when going onto Knight through Marine Drive. Must slow down once you have past 57th Ave. Usually people on the bridge deck saw the police and slow down. That will lead to slow downs from 57th Ave to bridge deck. Don't get impatient and cut people aggressively or not following traffic rules. I saw many people got caught in this spot. The most that I have seen is 5 people got caught and lined up next to the island waiting for their ticket to be written up.
I usually stay away from Knight and go on Fraser. I believe there are mot spots, but these are the most common ones that I saw frequently on Knight. Especially near the end on the month.
I ususally drive with 60Km/h on Kingsway/Boundary wherever. Officially i'm over speed, but do u think 60Km/h will be caught as well? I seldom see cars really run with 50km/h in town.
Richmond I have seen cops set up radar at the following area, especially in the morning:
1) No 4 and Alderbridge, the radar is at the military building entrance on No 4. They like to catch early morning going to work traffic heading north.
2) Cambie and No 4, the radar is on the right side of Cambie road before heading east on the overpass.
My friend got caught for doing that before... so I don't think i will do that anymore :p
this is actually very interesting, because... what was your friend charged with?
like was he charged with using high beam within 150 ft of traffic
or like interference with police work?
or what? exotic behavoir while driving?
Personally I see a million ways out of that charge
i.e. " i was trying to signal the car in front, I think he has a flat tire..."
" The car in front was < too close to the other lane / have a part that just came off / littering / etc >
of course you'd be saying that to the judge and not at the cop >.<
what do you guys think?
and yea,
what was your friend chargeD?
