Emajean Street near Near Arboretum Apartments entrance
Emajean Street is only about 1/4 mile long, 2 way street that goes up a hill,with entrances to several apartment complexes on either side. Cars are always parked along the sides of the road. The speed limit is not posted, but it is supposedly 25 mph. At the top of the hill, police cars often sit there tucked away on the side facing down the hill toward West Michigan Ave. and clock cars heading up the hill into the complexes. Always stay below 25, because it is all college apartments and the cops like to bust them in Kalamazoo like crazy, especially because of the parties and bars in the area. They are always looking for drunk drivers, especially. I was pulled over twice there, 5mph over and 10 mph (at 2AM monday morning/sunday night, the most random time for a speed trap) over by the same cop. He also pulled me over another time elsewhere, and once came into my apt. and committed various unconstitutional actions. I wrote a report to the WMU PD about his abuse of power and he was suspended for 3 months. Don’t know if he still has his job, but be on the lookout for this speedtrap and him, because he will try to screw you over as much as possible.
