Dover, Delaware Speed Traps

Dover P.D. sits well off the road sometimes near the DE Rt. 1 overpass, usually shooting East for traffic entering town, and also sits on side of road near Willis road shooting West for traffic leaving town during PM rush hour.

Dover Police commonly use motorccyles and hide in the Holy Cross parking lot across from Kent General hospital or hide on Elm Street where it intersects with State Street and nail unsuspecting motorists as they are entering Dover or heading into town.

Police officers park their motorcycles behind the signage and bushes in the middle of the roadway and then run out into traffic on foot to stop violators.

Dover PD and State both patrol this notorious strip. More so Dover PD, but they love to hide under the little overpass and they’ll sit in the median right in front of Tilcon (by the traffic light). Since they mainly use motorcycles, there’s always backup within a 1 mi radius. Pulse radar! Radar detector won’t pick it up until you’re right on him!

State police usually sit under the overpass and may be in cars or motorcycles.
