Bloomingdale, Georgia Speed Traps

The only source of revenue for the Bloomingdale Police Department is You. The largest and only growing business in town is the Police Department. Behind the Crepe Myrtles in the median are where they hide…the whole length of I-16 in Bloomingdale. They will stop you if you are more than 10mph over anytime of the day or night. They have nothing else to do in Bloomingdale other than stop speeders on I-16.

Usually waiting just beyond the rise of a slight hill and inside the beginning of city limits.

Right at mile marker 152 on I-16, there is a spot where the Bloomingdale police have worn a rut in the grass. The bushes on the Interstate are planted at an angle, so that you can’t see the Police cars until you are right on top of them.

Bloomingdale is the next city from Pooler, already listed here. There is no street safe here for even the smallest infraction. Whether on I-16 or Highway 80 or the Deloach Parkway, Bloomingdale police generate most of this tiny city’s revenue by running speed traps from many hidden spots on all the roads. The judge reduces every one in rapid fire fashion to an amount that won’t put points on your license but still inflicts a heavy fine, that way, nobody argues their ticket. Cash only, please, when you pay. The ATM is right over there…

Speed limit drops from 35mph to 25mph for school zone in appoximately 7 seconds (about 350 Fort) with no warning of school zone. Officer is parked behind brush and trees near school crossing. Crossing guard is not visible.
