By admission of local officer, the city needs new police cruisers and equipment. Radar traps are set about 50 yds before a 45 MPH speed limit sign, at the bottom of a small hill, at a point where drivers see the 45 mph sign and begin to accelerate. Local officers are taking a very rigid stance that the 45mph zone begins AT the sign, nowhere before it. Fines are averaging $225-250 per citation.
