Yeah I saw them hidding at WILLINGDON and LOUGHEED - northbound on willingdon
When the light turns red and everyone comes to a stop they get out of their hidding spot (in the gas station - Esso on the right) and come around the cars and look at people inside the car to check if they're on their phone and seatbelts.
I thought it was like a hobo or someone looking to steal shit (I'm from a 3rd world country) so I was like wtf is this person doing and it was a cop LOL

I'm sure you guys know about South East Marine & Elliott . Cops are moving down a block by South East Marine and Jellicoe , there is a bus stop ( one of the walk in ones) they hide behind the glass.

If it haven't been mentioned, cops always at kingsway and boundary, they hide near the ally below kingsway sushi and walks up to check for cell phones.

In terms of radar detectors, what's the best option if we are driving within BC? Can I get away with an older Passport 9500?

Radar detectors don't really help much since speed cops all use lazer now.

I have a Valentine V1 set up in my car. Got it because it works well for me and is pretty intuitive to use.

thank you for the information!

Not a speed trap, but trucker strike.
Trucks have blocked the HOV lane westbound on the Port Mann bridge.
I can hear the honking in my office and now the news choppers are flying overhead.

JDMDreams 09-25-2019 01:52 PM

^^ I think it is related to the loggers protest going on today into DT, it was on the news

fliptuner 05-31-2020 04:04 PM

Just a head up. Speed traps on Maryhill bypass between Broadway and Kingsway, on a regular basis. Either direction.

Occasionally, they're between Pitt and Shaughnessy, westbound.

Klondike 06-01-2020 01:04 PM

Speed trap westbound on 41st, two blocks before cambie (columbia + 41st)

Happened a few weeks ago.
