Default PSA: Laser on 355 Southbound just prior to Maple.........

Lidatek 1 - Troopers 0

Cruising down 355 this morning and Lidatek goes full on. Up on the bank in front of me is a state trooper with his car pointed down the bank and shooting laser. I stab the brakes and hit 55 before the lidatek shuts off. I then see 2 catch cars waiting, but none move. Ahead there are 3 more cars and trucks pulled over.

On my way back up 355, I see 6 cars pulled over.

Default I enter southbound at Maple and didn't see anything at 7:15ish.

As I am usually entering the tollway briskly, thanks for the heads up.

Default Fack. 355 up through 53 has mostly been laser-free until now.

The good news is that they sit and wait at the same predictable handful of spots.

On 355/53:
-Just south of the bend at Ogden;
-Under the viaduct and in the state police station at 88;
-at the crossover north of Roosevelt;
-the crossover just north of the army trail toll (I swear there must be donuts there);
-at and just north of the 290 merge.

Speed everywhere else.
