Grimes, Iowa Speed Traps
Four way stop sign on Gateway Dr next to the carwash
They sit on the east side of the car wash watching the four way stop to catch people who roll through the stop sign.
HWY 44 / Stoplights by new Wal Mart
They sit to the South of the new stoplights by the new Wal Mart on NW 70th. It’s particularly bad when the crops start to grow because you can’t see them sitting there if you are coming from the East/Johnston.
S. James Street near Grimes Elementary School
Police cars often are sitting by the elementary and sports complex – late night and through out the day. With it only being 25 mph I’ve heard more people have been ‘caught’ heading south (exiting city limits) than entering, since they aren’t as careful heading out of town..
NW 121st Street near State Highway 141
Usually during morning rush & afternoon rush, officers sit on the black top running north of Grimes (N. James Street) – anywhere between Grimes and Highway 141 intersection.
State Highway 141 near State Highway 44
Sheriff department patrol cars sit on 141 near the Grimes exit, often just over rise to the south of the exit.
