Local police sit on Union Ave in Bloomingdale in a few locations. They are often hiding, pulled into the bushes, near the old age home just before the entrance to Morse Lakes, or sometimes on the other side of the Morse Lakes entrance on the little dirt pull-off. Many people are caught speeding here because of dubious speed limits, which (if you follow signs) show a 35 mph limit in one direction and a 40 mph limit in the other. It creates confusion and the officers can bilk people for money VERY easily.

Late at night you'll usually find a Bloomingdale officer hiding in the Mobil station parking lot, checking speeds of passersby on Main Street (Hamburg Tpke). The speed limit is somewhere around 30mph I believe, but late at night with no cars around, many people will travel 35-40 mph and the cops can ticket as much as they want.
