crossing LHPWY bridge. To be clear, I support our officers and the jobs they do which are quite difficult. BUT this has NOTHING to do with criminal activity and is solely for the generation of revenue. A vile process IMOSO>>>>> if you dont want to contribute to the court system your hard earned dollars for no damn reason at all. .....Be sure you do 40 coming across the bridge. Sorry bastards are trying to hide themselves off to the side till you come right on them. Sneaky and underhanded. AND btw 40 is just ridiculas on this bridge.....but it damn sure generates revenue which is why I am sure they set it there..... 4951

I drive this route a couple of times a day as my grandkids live in Atascocita and I look in on them on these long summer days because the parents work in Houston. Typically I see the police at that first crossover on the north side of the bridge, sometimes on the  second one. I think they make good revenue there as people really pick up the speed coming north across the bridge. The Houston police are now using an unmarked dark grey or maybe it's black Chevy. Not sure what if it's a Camero. Sometimes I see them on the south bound side about 300 yards out on to the bridge where there is a bit of a rise in the road so you don't see them on the right shoulder until you go over the crest. Never seen them on the south end of the bridge. 4951

@rena:
 
I will have to check. Everyone hates me going 40 but I have no desire for frequent tickets. 4951

I just stay back and let the fast people go first and or go the speed limit.It's hard in the si, but getting a ticket takes way longer than going the speed limit on that bridge.Same with Hamblen road and it's 35 MPH. 4951

@Annie: In the mornings, sometimes a police office sit's in ZZ Gators and radars the traffic going out.
Sometimes in the afternoons they sit up by that Mexican Restaurant and watch the stop sign at Forest Cove and Hamblen, or in the trees across from the gold course and radar folks coming in. 4951

WLHP has been 45 for over a year - for some reason they upped it from 40. I think the bridge is the same. Isn't hard to stay within that. I got welcomed to Texas with a $200 speeding ticket and a warning in short order. I try to stay with traffic now. 4951

And if HPD were to quit running radar in LHP, the first time there was an accident the same ones moaning about them running radar would the ones complaining you never see them.
 
Don't speed and you have nothing to worry about.

Exactly....  Speed Limits were designed for a purpose and not just to generate revenue.

HPD got me once there a few years ago when I lived in the Harbor Cove apartments. My current problem, again right by my house- yay me..., is a four-way stop sign that hardly gets traffic so it's easy to kinda stop and roll thru... so I've gotten two tickets for that stupid intersection. Pisses me off when they should be patrolling the neighborhood like they're supposed to looking for criminal activity. We had a girl who got assaulted and rape some months back, where the heck were they then?? Probably waiting for the next person who was gonna run thru that stupid stop sign. 4951

@lilmama09: the old "they should be looking for someone else argument." Im glad they are keeping the speeds down on that section of WLHP. Trying to cross the median to get to the harbor or trying to pull out of the harbor at the end of the bridge is dangerous because of the curve and the speeding.
 
Now, if they enforce the limits on the feeder coming off of the northpark exit.
