Brougham Dr. East of Van Dyke

Sterling Heights, MichiganMar 23, 20102 Comments

Right after dropping off my daughter at school, I turned onto Brougham and headed west. The officer was sitting in a new subdivision (hidden). I was 2 miles over the speed limit ( I hit a piece of ice and skidded then tapped my brakes). He claimed I slammed on the brakes after speeding. I went to pay the fine and found out that I could at least fight to get the points removed – I will do that ( probably still have to pay). This is a money-making business, people – be Aware!

Seriously? I don't know. I love the cop sitting there. People travel up and down Brougham at 35 to 40 mph plus all the time. The speed limit is 25. Although they are saying that the 5 to 10 mph buffer cops give is going away, i have never seen a cop pull someone over for driving 25-30 mph on Brougham. Of course, i can't prove this, and i haven't talked to the cop, but i often drive by him at 28-30 mph. If you live in the area and are using the road to get to your home and not a a quick short cut, then you should know he is sitting there. I guess the lesson is, be more careful, especially on icy days.

This is not a speedtrap. The speed limit 25 MPH, not 26 milees or better. The police are just doing their jobs. I live on this street and cars travel very fast. There are children living here. Please slow down.
