Traffic Studies

Speed Limit Sign 25 MPH

Often the O’Fallon Police Department receives complaints for speeding, usually on residential streets where the 25 MPH speed limit is lower than the main thoroughfares.  A couple common phrases we hear are, “I see cars flying by all the time!” or “Cars race down my street!”  However, the perception of a vehicle’s speed does not always match with the actual speed of the vehicle.  Still, the O’Fallon Police Department is dedicated to proactively solving problems through education and enforcement, including speed complaints.  Upon receipt of a traffic complaint involving speeding vehicles, the following steps are taken:

Step 1:  We deploy a traffic data collection device for about 7 days to determine if a problem exists and identify peak enforcement times.

Step 2:  A radar trailer, which displays the speed of approaching vehicles, is placed in the location of the complaint for about 7 days following the data collection to make motorists aware of their speed without having to be pulled over.

Step 3:  Enforcement action by the Patrol Division to increase education for the speed limits and voluntary compliance.  Traffic citations are not our first option but can be issued on the Officer’s discretion.

We will post all of our traffic data on this page. 

Traffic complaints can be forwarded to Lt. Buck at [email protected]  or by calling 624-4545.
