US Highway 64
Anywhere on US 64 through Roland is heavily patroled with Ka/K band moving radar mounted on the patrol car dash. They will drive east/west monitoring the other lane of traffic and will turn around through the median. Sometimes they will sit on the east side of town monitering west bound traffic from Fort Smith as the limit changes quickly from 65 to 55 to 45 as you enter the town and easy to miss. They also hide in what looks like an abandoned gas station off the road, they sit in the fuel port monitoring west bound traffic. The speed limit is strictly enforced with one-mile-per-hour over enough to trigger a ticket. They will also stop you for any other minor traffic violation so be prepared and alert when driving through. (No mechanical defects on the car). Often the officers take breaks at the McDonalds on the east side of town or the gas station at the intersection of Roland Road. If two officers are there you are generally safe but I would not push it. A lot of people I have spoken have complained about wrongfully given tickets since they supposedly do not properly know how to use radar properly and Oklahoma requires no training. However I do not personally have any experience with this but I would err on the side of caution. (Don’t drive in any manner in which you may appear to be speeding perhaps?)
