I-35 and 1518 (Shertz exit) Selma, Texas

I-35 and 1518 (Shertz exit). The police was taking radar as I was exiting the highway (70mph) on to a access road (45 mph). This dude was in the grass, way up in there. I assume that they need money for their little town and we are the donors.

15000 block of North Bound Frontage Road I.H.35 Selma, Texas

starting around 10pm, selma cops park in front of the closed stores along this north-bound frontage road. Usually seen in front of Furniture Row, Rudy's, and near Hooters. But sometimes I see them on the highway itself, their stealthy police cars waiting in the shoulders According to a policeman I know in New Braunfels, the Texas DPS informally asked Selma PD to reduce the amount of citations given due to speeding on IH35, as Selma PD were way over the state average. As a result, for the last several years, Selma PD is forced to work more along the access roads along the highway, as well as along the Forum Parkway in the Forum Shopping Center. Not only is speed monitored along the access road (45 mph - do not increase speed until you are actually *ON* IH35!), but they will cite you for failing to yield (on the southbound access road), failure to come to complete stop (at intersection near Gillman Honda), crossing the double white line (northbound access road), etc. I was told by my policeman friend in NB that Selma PD are very heavy handed when it comes to vehicle searches, too, and he recommends complying with the officer's requests or else the situation is guaranteed to escalate. (I think bullying may be a good way to describe how Selma cops will behave towards a driver who decides to argue) Vehicle Equipment Citations are very common, too; they will not give you a warning to fix a burned out license plate bulb or headlight, for example. And expect no sympathy from anyone at the courthouse. With the exception of an approved Defensive Driving Course to dismiss a moving violation, which thankfully our State of Texas allows us -other deferrals are rarely given out. Remember that Selma, Tx, is only about 5 square miles with a population of less than 1,000. I.H. 35 runs right down the middle of this, so please be careful driving on the high way, or along the access roads, or when visiting any of the shops at the Forum. Selma cops are a mean bunch, much worse than State Troopers!

Along the shoulder of IH35 North and South Selma, Texas

Officers will park under the bridge or side of the road with the hazard lights on appearing to be a disabled motorist and once you speed past them or commit a traffic violation your nailed.

Speed Trap Selma, Texas

Selma has only two exits and two entrances along I-35 and has two subdued color cars to trap motorists. The city says they do not depend on funds from tickets but I believe otherwise
