The Iowa Trooper's usually start at the Pottawattamie/Mills County line and work their way up and down the Interstate (I-29),(both lanes). Sometimes an unmarked unit will work with two other marked units. Speed limit is 65 mph, which is hard to do because just about everyone exceeds it.

Comment (6/2005): Not true in all arrears try I-80 east both sides fr:Neb. Border to the underwood exit M.M.17---East bound

Comment (6/2005): Also from the Missouri river coming into Iowa from Nebraske (I-80)east to underwood Iowa--M/M 18--bad area some times they sit in the rest areas east&West a lot of unmarked unit's all colars----Good luck all---

Comment (11/2005): Traffic speed laws are very strict in Council Bluffs. We just moved here and see a lot of cars pulled to the side by the police.

Comment (1/2006): I 29 speed now is 70

Comment (4/2006): This area, I-29 & highway 370 is often checked with aircraft also.

Comment (7/2006): Speed limit is 70, then 65 and then 55 as you travel north towards Council Bluffs.
