Eagan, Minnesota Speed Traps
Diffley between Pilot Knob and Lexington
In between Pilot Knob and Lexington where that big dip is on Diffley, towards the bottom usually a black squad car will be in on of the neighborhood streets clocking as you pass by.
494 at 35E
Three state patrol vehicles are working the west bound lane of 494 before 35e. All officers were had cars pulled over.
Lexington hill after Lexington & Diffley intersection north
A cop will usually hide at the bottom of the ‘Lexington hill’ (the hill on the north side of the Lexington and Diffley intersection) in the driveway/parking lot of Patrick Eagan Park and the Eagan Art House catching anyone speeding either direction (usually north) because the speed does not change from 45 tp 50 till after the bottom of the hill. In the past the driveway was right on the edge of a tree line making spotting the cop nearly impossible travling north, but recently (approx. 2009) the city re-routed the driveway so it is farther north combining with a church entrance, which also makes the cop slightly more visible if you know what your looking for. (‘He’ is usually parked in the Eagan Art House parking/turn around)
-note; Lately most people have learned to slow down automaitically, but a squad car is ocassionally seen there, so keep an eye out.

Unmarked grey Dodge Charger will sit on Northview Drive facing Northview Park Road during AM rush-hour (road leads to both high school and middle school). Patrols will periodically run back and forth on Northview Park Road (motorcycle in summer months).
