Speed Traps in McAllen, Texas

Fern Street Between McColl and Jackson St.   McAllen, Texas

Motorcycle Cops. Posted speed limit is 30, but due to the 4 traffic lanes and open stretch of road, traffic runs faster. They tend to hide in side roads or entrances to apartment complexes located on either side of the road. Very hard to see them. They run radar so if you have a radar detector, you can usually get an early warning, if not, they will get you! They are very hard to see, and they know it.

Violet Avenue between 1st Street and 2nd (Nikki Rowe)   McAllen, Texas

Motorcycle officers, yes, sometimes two of them, like to park among the oleanders on the North side of the road. Speed limit is 30 but due to the open stretch from McColl to 2nd, westbound traffic tends to go faster. I have seen times when both officers have made stops at the same time.

Dove Avenue near Rail Road Tracks   McAllen, Texas

McAllen Police Department motorcycle cop at about the 1500 Block of Dove. He parks his motorcycle on the sidewalk, yes the sidewalk, under a very large Oak tree on the south side of the road. Since he is wedged between a large tree and a wooden fence, he is very difficult to see.
