There is another new speed trap on the one-way service road that runs parallel to Arlington Expressway between Cesery Boulevard and Arlington Road. This is the only service road that runs One-Way in a southeast direction (toward Regency Mall). I live in an apartment near there and I Must use this one-way service road to go anywhere, even if it means making a huge U-Turn if I want to go downtown. There are often 2 police officers standing up as if one is teaching the other how to use the portable radar gun. My girlfriend got nailed there going 45 in a 35 mph zone. Cost her $80.00! So be careful there!
