    Default Officer Signature and Speed Trap Locations in California

    (California)
    First question-Does the citing officer have to personally sign the citation he writes me?

    2nd question-Where are the legal speed traps? I just received a speeding ticket on the I-5 SB coming into the valley containing Castaic Lake, just under where the NB crosses over the SB side(I believe he also wrote CHP Road #1-I can’t tell from his handwriting though) and was wondering if there is any way to find out when the last time that area was checked by CHP.

    I expect that the copy filed with the court will be signed.

    Read this statute. If you want information about a particular stretch of road, use FOIA.

    SB I-5 in that area has a statutory Maximum speed limit of 65mph. So a speed trap defense does not apply.
