Richwood, Ohio Speed Traps

My house is approximately 75 yards west of the village limit on State Route 47 (E) which at that point a 35 mile zone . An officer will sit in the John Deere parking lot with radar , and snag drivers as the ramp up to or down from the 55 mile zone which is 75 or 80 feet east of where they are . I have sat on my front porch and seen this happen .

Cops like to sit facing West, just out of view, in part of the old Junior High School’s parking lot. So then cars traveling East better be going 25 in that area like it states or they will stop you.

The police sit at the very edge of town and run radar. If auto is headed into town it better be going 35 mph when it enters town. And likewise if auto is headed out of town when it leaves town better only be going 35 mph or they will chase you outside of town in order to stop violator. There are many traffic violations inside the village limits that could be enforced but they spend too much time sitting at the edge of town running radar.
