I-271 exit Broadway, east on Broadway before Macedonia Road
Its an immediate 25 mph zone as soon as you exit east on Broadway off I-271. Oakwood police sit in ambush inside the parking lots of businesses there and dart out when anyone “speeding” over 25 mph goes past them. I thought they were in pursuit of a bank robber when this particular officer proceeded to speed through a parking lot just to get behind me and pull me over (I was driving a mini-van clocked at 43 mph in a 25 mph zone). I had never been on this road before at this exit area since I am from 50 miles south of this town of Oakwood. I did not see the 25 mph sign or I would have heeded it. Yes I am guilty but the officer would not even consider a warning but issued me a ticket in the amount of $161.00!! Clearly this is a speed trap area to assist in income for the city of Oakwood! I would be willing to bet the Oakwood police officers have a “quota” to reach each month and probably get incentives to reach their quota. This particular police officer seemed desparate in his approach of me on that particular day.
