Marseilles, Illinois Speed Traps
County Trunk 15 near IV Cellular parking lot
Car in IV Cellular park lot. At night, they sometimes sit on County highway 15 facing north towards Main St.
State Route 6 near Rutland Street
Sitting in back of Twin Oaks parking lot.
South Main St., Illinois river bridge, both ends
The bridge is very steep, so keeping your vehicle at the limit is difficult on the downside. The local cops sit in two spots: North side- to the left in a little alcove by the factory, hidden by foliage, or to the right against the fence again hidden by foliage. South side: either back a little in the church’s driveway on the west side or sitting back aways in the entrance to Illini park. They are especially tough on out-of-towners!
City Limits and surrounding area
Police call in all license plates of vehicles moving and parked. Usually more than 60 are called in per hr. On weekends when out of towners are visiting it is especially a bad time to drive or park on public roads. Anyone with a prior conviction from the call in will be stopped. Pickup Trucks and Motorcycles are almost always stopped, usually for incomplete stops or loud mufflers.
