State Highway 183 near Euless Main Street

Euless, TexasJan 02, 20061 Comments

Euless main is posted as 35mph coming off of Hwy 183. I frequently see people pulled over by the Euless police for doing 45mph, which, given the excellent condition of the road, is not an unreasonable speed. They get their speeders north or south of the 183 intersection. It does not matter. What you don’t know that I do as a local, is that when the police station shifts changes (the station is just off of Ector and Hwy 183 and is a block from this intersection) and lets out after whatever briefing, these cops more often than not, start out their shift by nabbing someone when they are coming out of or towards the police station. In fact, I have been at the Jack in the Box there or the Sonic and have seen a steady stream of Euless police headed out for the days assignments along that intersection. I suspect that it is a great way to insure overtime on the way into work. And if they are coming out of work, they are thinking quota. Nevertheless, just take it easy and do 35mph or less. I can’t tell you how many times while keeping to 35mph I see a Euless cop pull in behind me on his way in or out of the Police Station.

You really should get your facts straight before you post. The Euless Police Department has not been on Ector Dr. since 2002. Number two there are no quota's. Number three there is no overtime. Patrol Officers do not get overtime even if they have to work 12 hours over. Sorry to bust your bubble. If you go the spped limit you wont have to work about getting ticketed.
