Multiple cops motorcycles or in patrol cars checking speed on Smoky Hill Rd from side streets or the entrance ramp to the Library. Just because somebody is being written up doesn't mean there isn't another cop to get you! | |

Sherrif hides in the bottom of the bowl on yosemite st. The same guy hides all over between quebec and yosemite and dry creek and countyline. He has been known to write tickets for 37 in a 35. Really pay attention to your speed coming down into the bowl. | |

Sherriff hides up in the corner of the north side of Drycreek on Monaco. You cannot see him from either direction on Drycreek. You can spot him about 500 ft up on Monaco heading north. This is a bad one because he will nail you coming in or out of the school zone on Drycreek before you have a chance. If it is the same guy that sits on Yosemite you are in trouble. He is by the book and has been known to hand out tickets for 37 in a 35. | |

Look out on all major routes between Parker road and Quebec Street in Centennial. There is an unmarked Chevy Impala with dark tinted windows that parks with its hazards on in the turn lane at the top of hills and intersections. This is a detectives car and will pull you over. | |

While driving northbound on S. Yosemite Street, approximately three city blocks south of E. Dry Creek Road, you will crest a hill. At the bottom of hill, on either the right-hand side street called E. Panorama Drive, or in the medium of S. Yosemite Street, itself,, an Arapahoe County Sheriff's Dept. marked, traffic unit squad car (on behalf of the City of Centennial, and to whom the citation fine's, go to), is often running radar in this 35-mph zone, for northbound traffic. The downhill slope of the road will increase your speed, so keep it at 40-mph, or less! | |

Liverpool Road from Smoky Hill at the top to Arapahoe Road at the bottom is one long hill with no stoplights, and there are three intersections on the west side going into the Greenfield residential neighborhood. Marked and unmarked units from Arapahoe County/Centennial can be frequently found in any of those intersections, pretending to be a car waiting to make a turn onto Liverpool, but really waiting to raise some revenue for the City of Centennial. Because there are no stoplights on Liverpool, they get people speeding both up the hill and down the hill. The speed limit is 40 on Liverpool, so plan on riding your brakes going down the hill in order not to speed. | |

This area has a road that leads you south of the intersection. Most people pull a u-turn to get back to Arapahoe Road. A cop will sit there and write tickets for u-turns despite their being no easy way to get back to Arapahoe Road. | |
