South Elgin, Illinois Speed Traps
Stearns Road between Randall & Umbenstock
East bound from Randall past Umbenstock, unmarked sedan sitting in the MEYER Material driveway. Must have radioed his marked car partner. I never saw the marked squad until he was behind me at the light. They park on either side and seem to work as a team. WATCH OUT, they give NO warnings.
Hidden driveway
Strearns road construction work zone on route 25. During late night hours. During winter when no work is being done. Not even in their jurisdiction.
Rte. 31 at McLean
As of 4/8/10 … They just put up the work zone signs again at Rte. 31 & McLean. They sit in the forest preserve parking lot just North of McLean on the East side (also watch on the west side). Speed is 35 MPH & they haven’t started working on it but they are out giving tickets. Work zone gets you a $350.00 ticket. Beware
Pedestrian Bridge Crossing: Randall Road and Silver Glen
South Elgin’s Finest taking radar from atop the pedestrian bridge crossing at Randall Road at Silver Glen on cars traveling North on Randall Road. Two of his buddies were in police cars a few hundreds yards down pulling people over. On 3/31/10 (No Quota’s there huh?..end of month and 1st quarter) from 11:40 AM to 1:00 PM must haver gotten at least 15 cars.
Glad they stopped all the gang violence in the area.
