Glen Rose, Texas Speed Traps

Watch out just east of the Paluxy River bridge on HWY 67 heading into town from the west. City Cop (the one and only) sits and waits just beyond a slight curve and rise in road. Speed limit drops from 70 to 55 to 45 in area and he is waiting for you.

The city cop in Glen Rose will sit and wait when come off the big hill into town and catch you "speeding". The speed limit on top of the hill is 50 – but at the base of the hill it is 45. He usually sits by the Sonic or Chicken Express to catch people.

Glen Rose has recently acquired a city police officer who is extreme in his traffic violation enforcement. Not only many speeding tickets are being handed out, but many other traffic related violations as well. No mercy is given if you have no previous violations. Please be aware of traps other than speed, such as stop sign violations. Be sure all your car lights are working properly and your state inspection and tax decals are up to date. This type of enforcement is only in the city and not in the surrounding county. If possible, avoid traveling through the city.
