Louisiana’s Worst Speed Trap Towns—Watch That Gas Pedal, Cher! 🚗💨
If you got a heavy foot, you better set that cruise control before rollin’ through some of Louisiana’s small towns. They might only have one or two traffic lights, but best believe they’re makin’ up for it with speeding tickets flyin’ left and right!

Slow Yo’ Roll—Or Pay Up! 💰
Look, if the sign says 50, do 50—not 51, not 55, and definitely not 60. It’s real easy to get caught up admirin’ them Louisiana Scenic Byways, but you’ll be admirin’ a fat ticket just as fast! Speedtrap.org, ProPublica, and USA Streets Blog already put these places on blast for stackin’ cash off unsuspectin’ drivers.
Speed Traps Are Big Business 🚨
Some of these "speed trap towns" got speed limits changin' faster than a crawfish boil sells out, and they’re rakin’ in record-setting cash from citations. Ain’t no warnings, either—just a ticket and a bad day. So do yourself a favor: set that cruise control and keep your wallet happy while soakin’ in that good ol’ Louisiana scenery.
