Seen only once but heard of it multiple times. One officer sits in the little ditch next to I-680 northbound just after the West Center Street overpass, clocking people that are merging onto I-680 from I-80 east and west. Location is visible during the day but at night you cant see them at all. Posted limit is 60, if you’re merging from I-80 east bound you come down a hill and pick up plenty of speed.

Several cops sit in that little parking lot for the park on 120th and pacific clocking eastbound traffic on pacific as soon as it clears the little hill just after boystown. No way to see them ahead of time. posted limit is 40, most people are doing 50 plus there. cops step out into road to motion you into the parking lot and wait for a ticket.

The trooper with the radar gun sits on 150th street above dodge behind the green sign stating the exits with his drivers window just past it so you can’t see him, clocking westbound traffic. The pursuit vehicles wait on the 150th street on ramp and u can’t see them until it’s too late.

A line of cars, usually OPD sit on the little island that separates traffic merging into Dodge and traffic exiting Dodge street next to Westroads Mall. One officer clocks eastbound traffic as soon as they clear the hill just before crossing over I-680. Posted limit is 45 but most people travel 60 plus so they tend to be patient. Can’t see them until they already have clocked you. seen them during lunch hour, pm rush hour and later after dark when you really cant see them. Also, be careful exiting I-680 north and getting onto eastbound dodge because they can clock you there as well.
