Newton, Alabama Speed Traps
County Road 18, Between HWY 231 and HWY 123
Newton police love to sit on this road with the dark car, because it is dark on the road and you do not see them until you are right on them. I have seen cars pulled all the time on this road.
State Highway 123 near Campground Road
Newton PD cop likes to sit in the parking lot of a closed gas station called Ard’s Supply pointed down 123 towards traffic coming from Ozark. Have seen him several times on the way home from work at about the same time, 4:30 in the afternoon.
Hwy 231 North, en route to Ozark
The town cop will go out of his jurisdiction to catch "speeders" I say "speeders" because sometimes I wonder if his traffic-tracking instruments are actually working. The guy typically hangs out near a road that you can’t really see until you are right up on it!! He loves to patrol a kind of desolate stretch of road that is just above the Covan movers facility and right below the Ozark city limits. This guy will not hesitate to write a ticket!! My mom was given a ticket from this guy for going 75 in an 60 mph zone.
