Exclamation PoPo "Hot Spots"

Post up where you see the PoPo hiding, so that we are all aware of them when were are out and about.

Watch out for:

Cop with a radar/laser gun at the Shell gas station on Fowler Ave. and 15th St. right across from the Steak & Shake. He looks like he's pumping gas but he's standing behind his door with his radar gun.

Cop on 56th St. and Fletcher right in front of College Court Apartments. He's just chillin' with no lights on and he is ALWAYS there.

NUMEROUS Cops along Florida Ave. going Northbound Right near Downtown and Busch Blvd. I swear I have seen five just chilling and waiting...

You shouldn't be speeding or driving crazy anyway, But JUST IN CASE you are, that's where I know of them..

Post More If you Know of More "Hot Spots"....

DISCLAIMER: Please do not rely on this post to be a completely accurate report of locations of officers of the law on duty. Locations could change at anytime and location. Locations stated are just some that were known from experience and "oh shit" encounters. The term "PoPo" is not meant to be demeaning in any way, as we should have the greatest and upmost respect for officers of the law.

That or the behind the sign a few hundred feet away. They are ALWAYS there and I mean always. For years I've seen a cop there just about everyday and they usually get people too.

Coming from the interstate towards BBD... hiding in the median just across the little bridge type thingy (close to BBD).

Coming from BBD heding towards the interstate, on the right side in the new development entrances (close to the interstate).

Once you get off of SR56 onto BBD headed south, they like to hide in the treeline on the right about 200 meters from the light at SR56.


* Footnote: Be watchful for wildlife there also... my buddy trashed his bike when he broadsided a deer on SR56. *

That's why i love orlando, they don't try to sneak around all shady like the TPD and Hillsborough sheriff's do all over the place in tampa.

If you get a speeding ticket in orlando I guarantee you deserve what you get because you have to be driving like a complete idiot and totally clueless of your surroundings to get a ticket here.
