Gerald, Missouri Speed Traps
Highway Y in front of Countryside Manor
A police car will be sitting along the side of the road in front of Countryside Manor Apartments, or in the driveway to the Lion’s Hall. He is at the top of a hill, and hard to see until it is too late. The speed limit is 30MPH, and at times is strictly enforced. (depends on the officer) They have been known to write a ticket for 34MPH.
East side of town Hwy 50
They have begun to sit in Cutters Edge parking lot, right on the road backed up against the bank of Subways yard which hides them well
West side of town on 50 across from elementary school
The local police like to setup across from the elementary in the mornings to catch people who missed the drop in speed when the sign is flashing. Looks mostly for people entering town from the east on Hwy 50.
