Harwood Heights, Illinois Speed Traps

As you come around the curve of Naragansett Av heading North towards Gunnison Av, the police like to sit just out of sight and off to the side in the Butera parking lot with their radar.You are leaving a 35mph and entering a 25 mph zone.

Located near Harlem & Lawrence

The squad car is parked on Butera parking lot and clicks everyone going over 30 mph. It is a wide road, with large front yards, so it feels like rural area – but it is not! I got a ticket at 3 am on my way to work for going 8 miles over limit. In the same time people were just leaving the nearby bar.

Harwood Heights Police will park between parked cars in marked and unmarked cars on either side of Oak Park Ave about 2 blocks south of Gunnison St. This is a school speed zone so be careful in the morning, and the afternoon

Police officer stands on Newcastle Ave where there’s a tree that covers. People turning from Oak Park Ave onto Forest Preserve can’t see him so therefore they tend to speed.
