San Dimas, California Speed Traps
Via Verde Blvd
South, past Puente Avenue, an officer on motorcycle is waiting with radar on hand. The posted maximum speed is 45 mph.
Via Verde exit off 57 Fwy E @ corner of Via Verde Ave.
CHP sits in the park n’ ride lot at corner of Via Verde and Fwy exit waiting for cars to blow the stop sign on corner.
Lone Hill Av, one driveway south of Cienega.
Motorcycle cop parks in our driveway (a business) on the east side of Lone Hill facing west. Points his radar gun south, towards Covina Blvd trying to get high school students speeding their way up Lone Hill, usually around lunch time. He’s never parked for more than a minute before he catches somebody.
Cataract Ave. between Arrow Highway and Bonita Ave.
I can see the motorcycle officer from my backyard sitting on his bike at least 4 times a week. He parks behind the Railroad crossing guard on Cataract Ave. on the north side of Bonita Ave. He aims his radar gun at northbound traffic on Cataract. The speed drops from 40 on Covina Blvd. down to 30 when it changes to Cataract because of the park. He’ll also get you for failure to make a complete stop. When he is there he writes ticket after ticket. almost as fast as he can park and get his gun back out. Be careful.
Amelia between Gladstone St & Auto Center Dr.
Allen Ave. School is in that area. Signs are posted 25 MPH "when children are present…" When you get past the school the speed limit stays at 25 MPH to Gladstone St. (used to be 35 MPH) Radar by the little store. CAREFUL!!!
