Piedmont police are on Grand Avenue heading north right before Piedmont neighborhood (Oakland Avenue), especially at end of the month

The police offer often sits under the bridge or in the adjacent street, Stanley Place. Make sure you stop at the stop sign, or there will be a ticket

The police offer often sits under the tree to the right of the exit Stop sign looking for either a rolling stop or speeding coming off the bridge.

This is a massive speed trap. I have lived in this neighborhood for 40years. As you head down from Montclair on Park Blvd . the cops hide around the first turn with radar guns People speed up to 50-60mph down this hill. I have seen as many as 20 traffic cops on motorcycles handing out tickets , confiscating cars and arresting people. All us locals know about this. So, if you take the Park Blvd. offramp on 24 & go down the hill GO Slow & look for cops. They radar you at the first turn than radio & have you pulled over at Leimiert & Trestle Glen. they even hire tow trucks to tow your vehicle & they search your car!!. Nobody is going to tell me this is not a trap!!!..we have witnessed it for years!! Beware. The city of Oakland makes a bundle of money on this!
