Granville, Ohio Speed Traps

This is a country road that connects two cities where common sense tells you that the speed limit is most likely 45, if not 55 mph. However, the limit is set artificially low at 35 mph. This catches most motorists off guard that are just enjoying the countryside. The meter maids in patrol cars are a bit overzealous in their enforcement of this area.

State Route 16 and 37 split. This is where I got caught. Speed limit is 55. Cop hides on ramp headed westbound sometimes. Cop got two of us at once. I was also once pulled over on Route 37 for going over the edge line. There was no ticket, but it shows the level of harassment here.

This small village has a large active police force. Police have written tickets for 3mph over – 28mph in a 25mph zone. Even though I live nearby, I intentionally avoid traveling into or through the village – constant high enforcement of all traffic issues.

Just recently, cause of the housing going up, there is heavy patrol on the last leg of river road. The speed is 35 and that long, straight road makes it difficult to keep that speed. I believe it use to be 55, not sure. They stay at the very end and get you after the secong housing development.. be careful
