Farmington Hills, Michigan Speed Traps

An unmarked Grey or white cop car sits in the Shell Gas station entrance facing 12 mile. He is watching to see who will run the light for traffice turning left onto 12 mile off of Orchard Lake Rd. He is there at least 3 to 4 times a week.

Cop parks in ‘turn around’ near Halstead, usually in the early eveing to late night. Radar for both W and E bound traffic.

25 MPH speed limit. Sits behind the house at the corner of 8 Mile and Metroview, partially hidden by baseball field hills when going southbound, but completely hidden when you go northbound on Metroview. Also will sit at the dead end north of the Green Hill Apartments street intersection waiting for people to come speeding out of the apartment complex and heading southbound on Metroview. I was pulled over and the cop actually apologized for giving me a ticket (only gave a no seat belt one instead) and said the few residents living in houses along Metroview complain to the local police to enforce it more. *VERY* random times of enforcement…middle of the night, rush hour, weekend mornings, you name it.

As you are going east you will pass under Grandriverthen the road bends to yhe left and goes down a hill.The cops sit at the bottem of the hill. You can’t see them until it is to late.

The cop hangs out in the parking lot of the Rite-Aide… he can clock people going on either road….and you cant see him due to the fact that he is behind the sign and you cant see him until you are already passed him.
