Gainesville, Florida Speed Traps

City police unit parked either side of Main St. near 1000 block. Wide-open roadway consists of 5 lanes undivided to include center turn lane through industrial area.

Highway patrol cars, GPD marked and unmarked patrol cars, and motocycle teams are able to take great cover on Millhopper road near the San Felasco state park entrance. Unless you have a radar detector, you are going to get a ticket at some point. They mostly camp out in the morning and after work.

You will often find police cruisers or motorcycles in the median and off on side streets alond nw 43rd st, between 8th ave and 23rd ave. The speed limit is 40 on the road, not 45, what most people drive.

Usually between 2 pm and 5 pm daily, car and motorcycle enforcement, you will not see the vehicle until you are clocked going down hill. No warnings, looks like a quota type deal.

In the 2 hrs around when people start to get out of work, look for motorcycle cops anywhere from Shands all the way to the Classic Car Wash on Archer. Beware they tend to sit at the Fire Station on Archer to catch people speeding or running the red light.
