Whatever you do, don’t speed through these Alabama towns. If you do, there’s a good chance you’ll pay for it. Our analysis found nine towns that stand out as speed trap, and most of them can be found in a compact corridor in north Alabama.
But even though Hillsboro cops wrote lots of tickets during that time, Chief Michael Taylor noted that they often issue warnings instead. In fact, records show they issued citations in just over half of grant-funded traffic stops.
Unlike Hillsboro, North Courtland didn’t receive federal grants in 2021 to help with traffic enforcement. But that doesn’t mean the town wasn’t writing tickets.North Courtland ranked fourth in Alabama in the amount of money per capita sent to the state from municipal court in 2021, with $120 per resident kicked up to Montgomery. It was one of just six towns that sent more than $100 per person to the state.
Jerry Garrett, the police chief in Town Creek, said that officers there typically ticket drivers who are traveling at least 15 mph over the speed limit. “I don’t want to get crazy with it,” he said, “but at the same time there’s a sign there and that sign’s there for a reason and there’s safety reasons.”Summerdale is a small town in Baldwin County, on the way from just about anywhere to Alabama’s beaches.
“Most of the time, they give more warnings than they do citations,” said Silverhill Police Chief Kenneth Hempfleng, who added that his officers patrol an area larger than just the town. “We have a generous limit we let people go over… I’ve never in my entire career wrote anybody for going less than 10 over.”Ohatchee is home to just under 1,200 people, and scored relatively highly across the board in’s analysis.
