Marion, North Carolina Speed Traps
Stacy hill Road near US Highway 70
The Police have frequent license checks at the intersection of Randolph Rd.and they also hide in the Calgary Church parking lot which is in between Randolph Rd. and Hwy.70.
Fairview Road near State Highway 226
As you turn onto Fairview road off Hwy. 226 slow down as you drop down the hill he is always sitting in the gravel driveway straight ahead hidden by some kudzu; when coming from the other direction you drop down the hill and he is hidden so well you’ll never know it until he’s got you. Speed limit is 35 and you are dropping down a slight hill so you have burn the breaks up to keep below that speed. Note: I see people pulled by this officer several times a week, every week!
Logan Street near Main Street
This street is a 35 MPH street per city ordinances but the police give tickets to the unknowing saying its a 20 MPH zone. It is clearly not. I am an attorney and have all this dismissed by the DA that I get from my clients. the officers routinely here have contests to see who can give the most tickets. Wrong, Wrong, Wrong.
