Western Pennsylvania Speeding Traps

WTAE, a Pittsburgh-area television station, has conducted an investigation uncovering the areas of western Pennsylvania where the most speeders are issued citations and where high numbers of traffic accidents have lead to increased police vigilance.

Here are the 10 areas where police officers write more speeding tickets than anywhere else in the region:

• Pittsburgh, PA – Route 51 near Edgebrook Avenue
• Butler Township, Butler County – Route 422 at Duffy Road overpass
• Bethel Park – Bethel Church Road between Logan and Brookside
• North Huntingdon – Route 30 at Bob's Service Station
• Ross Township – McKnight Road at Nelson
• Neville Township
• Osborne Township – Route 65
• Butler – Main Street Butler
• Leetsdale
• Rochester Boro, Beaver County – Route 65

Western PA police and PennDOT hope that WTAE's coverage and the release of this information will encourage local motorists to obey speed limits.
