New Speed Limit Radar Device Put Up in Grand Traverse County

Posted: Updated:

Drivers may want to back off the gas pedal in Grand Traverse County.

A new portable radar speed detecting sign will snap a photograph of anyone traveling 15 mph or more than the posted speed limit.

The county recently put up a sign that displays vehicle speeds on Peninsula Drive.

A speeding driver was killed near that spot not too long ago.

County Deputies say there are no plans to use the photos for tickets, but rather will review the photos to recognize vehicles and offending drivers.
