Aurora, Colorado Speed Traps

The stretch of road on Iliff (or Jewell) between Tower and E-470 where the speed is 40MPH. There is no houses, seems like it should be 55MPH. Watch your speed.

Aurora police love just camping out behind the buildings near here and gun people going northbound on Airport Road. Speed is 40mph but tempting to go faster due to 3 lanes and straight open road. Can’t see them until the last possible second and then it is too late. These campers will get you to slow down here and save your money!

This is usually when the weather warms up and people start to go faster, or rush hour (if volume doesn’t slow everyone down), weekends and holidays.
Usually a motorcycle officer on the corner of E. Bates Ave. at S. Chambers Rd., on either side, east or west. Sometimes an officer is by the light at Yale Ave., looks like a pedestrian waiting to cross. There is also a bus stop there, so if you slow down to see if it’s an RTD passenger or a cop….you are probably safe.

This my friends is a trap and and half. It’s in a part of town where Denver and Aurora meet in the funny little area anyway they like to hide under those two overhead passes, just waiting there lurking like the vultures that they are!

They have a photo radar set up here on the side where the fire station is. If you go barely past the yellow, you will be mailed a speeding ticket. $70-$100 and no points off your license.
