Hickory police typically sit in the grassy median on McDonald Parkway facing southbound traffic. If you are going south on Mcdonald Parkway after passing Tate Blvd you come up a hill. Right after you crest the hill there is often Hickory police sitting there. Started seeing this this past summer and quite often ever since. Great place for them to get speeders and other violators because you dont see them til its too late. Usually in the late morning to early afternoon is when they are there.
