I absolutely believe it. I live off a major street. This street passes through a residential area. It has many cross streets every few seconds.

The speed limit through the residential area drops to 25.

People drive through at 80mph. Not exaggerating. I avoid the main road, especially at night when the roads are clear. Never know when nothing will be happening, totally quiet, and then ZOOOOOOOOM a car from 2 miles away nearly runs you over before you see it.

Why is the police not setting up traps?

The place seems like a "license to print money" for the police or even the local city hall if they install a speed trap.
