Last time I went through Waldo was about 1999 or 2000.

I don’t agree that it is a speed “trap”. At least going north (can’t recall regards going south). A trap is a setup where it is unreasonably easy to speed and that is used to ticket for ridiculous infractions. Going north it is so well marked and they make it abundantly clear one will get nailed, that IMO one is paying insufficiently safe attention to their driving if they speed there. Nobody is “trapping” anyone going northbound.

I was there last Summer. Going north it goes 45-55-45-55-65. It has "Spreed Limit Strictly Enforced" signs, but the whole point is to catch people. I understand people need to be alert when driving, but the whole point of it has nothing to do with safety and everything to do with generating revenue. Side note- It reminds me of this terrible movie:

Going north as you say is not such a deal but it is the south run where they really work it.
