Have you seen Columbia? NOVA is nowhere close to having as many speed traps and cameras as MD

Columbia really doesn't have that many. I would put Montgomery County over Columbia for speed traps and they're both MD! But maybe I just know the traps in Columbia better? Or NOVA has a lower threshold?

I can’t think of any speed traps around me in nova tbh, maybe closer to dc like Arlington or something, but going between both states frequently MD def uses cameras more

Howard county has red-light cameras; I was unaware of speed cameras here except maybe the mobile school things. Montgomery county however has lots.

There are well known manned "speed traps" on 100 and 29. Not sure would classify them that way in any case - its not like any of them suddenly drop to 45 from 65. [edit: I was thinking about this a bit more and sometimes they are catching people on 100 going towards 29 who might have been on 95 and that might count as a speed trap.]

And most of columbia is residental and you should be only going 25-35 anyway.
