    Adding in some information that will help out here (this is my commute to work).

    1. There is a speed trap that is sometimes set up on De Gaulle, usually right past the entrance to Lakewood. I’ve only seen in set up once in the last year (two weeks ago or so) but it’s a 35 mph zone and it’s easy to get caught speeding there.

    2. When coming back during the school year, they usually put a sheriff to direct traffic on Woodland Highway at the intersection with F Edward Hebert Blvd. They don’t actually know how to direct traffic and it will be miserable between 3 and 330.

    Tolls are enforced both directions, they aren’t as expensive as the Grand Isle toll though. I think they charged me 8 bucks or something when I was towing my boat. I usually take the toll bridge on the way home just because traffic gets rough on the CCC.
