Hey thanks, nomore55. More places I can go try out my Laser Interceptor once I get it.
Here's some info on laser traps in Ma from the "How to Beat Your Ticvket" sub-forum:
http://www.radardetector.net/forums/...-resident.html
For anyone who doesn't already know, this trap is very frequently set up. I used to get on rt. 3 south at rt. 62 every afternoon after work and when the weather is decent, they are there 50 % of the time. The trap is just south of rt. 62. (a few hundred feet) in the center median. If you are going over 65 as you get within 2000 ft. (apparently) of that trap, you are making a mistake.
The other MA trap that has had "success" on these pages recently is Crosby Drive in Bedford. (the rt. 3 north exit for rt. 62 leads you right onto this road if you go straight at the lights at the end of the exit ramp) They set up on the south bound side in the afternoon around rush hour in an office park parking lot on the right. (hiding around the parked cars) Went past that trap many times after work in the last couple of years. Even 50 MPH in that 40 zone (I think it's 40 at that end of Crosby and 30 at the other end) is not a good idea.
Another highway trap I see very often is Mass Pike East, several hundred feet east of the rt. 9 exit on the right side, just after a corner. Over 75 around that corner is just asking for trouble.
A year ago I saw the Cambridge police using laser at the northmost end of Concord Ave. They were there for a few days in a row and I have not seen them yet. I got the feeling they were doing training or were testing the guns.
Heading west from Logan Airport in the 2nd tunnel (not the Ted Williams tunnel) is a favorite speed trap. They are now using laser here -- my buddy is fighting a ticket he received.
Also be aware that the speed limit in all of the tunnels is 45!!!
On my route i got through a couple areas that have it. Manchester, Derry right off exit 4 on 93, Methun, Reading ALOT along rt28, I see them sometimes on 114 going thru andover, reading, danvers, topsfield etc, then along rt9 in framingham but downtown they usually like to run radar, and finally Ashland ma. I travel those roads routinely and thats what i have seen. Right now you wont see it too much but as soon as its warm....

It must have been his lucky day, because the (female) clerk magistrate said that because he had no previous tickets she would let him off.
She also told him to be careful going 45 next time, as you could get rear-ended!!
Wenham lasered me from the rear last summer. Never saw them with it again, though they do love running 33.7 moving and instant-on all the time. Nasty little town!
