Palatine, Illinois Speed Traps

Officers will often sit on one of the smaller west side streets off of Quentin just south of Palatine Rd in an unmarked car while other officers pull people over southbound. They will also do this near Fremd and for northbound traffic at the street just north of the Jewel at Euclid and Quentin.

On side street between Palatine road and Rt 14(northwest Hwy), officer sits on side steet on west side of Rohlwing road. During morning rush when drivers are wanting to make the traffic signal before railroad tracks at Rt. 14.

The cops sit behind a large bunch of trees right inside a shopping plaza entrance. Travleing Eastbound it would be on your Right side about a mile down from Quentin Highway next to HairSnips.

Usually eastbound Palatine Road between Rt 14 – Northwest Hwy and Rowhling Rd. Police sit on one of the side streets (usually on the South side)and catch anyone speeding 10 miles per hour or more over the 25 mph speed limit.

The cop sits in the northbound traffic light lane at the Target entrance (before rand rd) on Dundee and waits for the people who go over the 35 mph limit. I’ve seen numerous people get pulled over for speeding and various other moving violations. I drive to work down Dundee 5 days a week and the cop is usually parked there around 6:30 am 3 to 4 times a week. It’s very easy to get pulled over when you are rushing to work and Dundee’s speed limit is only 35.
