Grand Prairie, Texas Speed Traps

Heading east on 303 past Great Southwest Pkwy and right before West Freeway. There is a slight hill and a cop is usually sitting right at the bottom of it waiting for speeders. The speed limit is 45mph, but I generally set my cruise at 50mph and am safe. Not sure what is used to distinguish the speed. They could be there anytime of the day but I see them in the mornings and afternoons on the way to and from work.

Police officer sits on the right shoulder behind grass and weeds that are usually grown up enough to hide his car and catches vehicles that top the hill on East bound traffic.

Motorcycle officers sitting on the inside shoulder of I-30. Shoulder is very wide near Belt Line Rd with rolling hill coming into the area. They sit looking both east and west, none more than the other. It’s 60mph on a 6 lane divided.

Speed limit drops 5 miles per hour in this area.

Unmarked cars are parked alone the side on the shoulders and sometimes on the inside median. These cars look like stranded motorists and sometimes look like a car with no one around it that even have a violation sticker taped to the windows. But they are using the laser radar and pick you up 2000 feet from their location. Then motorcycle cops and marked police cars are waiting on the entrance ramps to get you. They are doing this at diferent hours and days of the week. So beware.
