Re: Cops are getting sneaky/smarter.
The newest tactic I've seen with police speed traps I observed a couple weeks ago. Going down a long open 3-lane straightaway on I-70 a couple hours after sundown, first thing I saw was a string of 3 road flares leading up to something on the shoulder... As I got closer I could see it was a broken-down car (I expected a broken down semi). Just as I got right up on it I could see it wasn't a broken down car, but a black & brown police cruiser! Sucker would have totally fooled me had I been going too fast. I mean, I could see him from a ways off but you don't expect road flares to mark a speed trap!!
In retrospect, maybe it was a broken down police cruiser. :D
