Slow down when you pass through Cimarron on US 64 or you'll see flashing red lights behind you coming from one of the two Cimarron Police Departments Ford Expeditions. They sit on either side of the highway waiting for you as you speed through town. There are also times (mostly evenings) where you can also see two of three State Police or Colfax County Units waiting for you as they sit and talk with the Cimarron PD units. SLOW DOWN!

Comment (6/2003): be aware that the speed limit is 35 mph in the town limits, even though you might not see the signs and the road from interstate 25 to Taos looks like a 45-55 mph road the town limit goes out 5 miles and is a gold mine for the state and locals.

Comment (2/2004): Cimarron is well known to the locals as a speed enforcement zone. In addition to the 35mph speed limit there is also a school zone on the West end of town that is not well marked. US412 between Springer and Cimarron is also closely watched by State Police.

Comment (05/2007): 2007-4 They sit at the School zone blocking the School sign. The speed drops to 15 MPH. This is the classic speed zone. Officer said the right things in a very arrogant way.

Speed limits changes fast, 55 to 45 to 35 to 25 watch out. Marked patrol unit had somebody pulled over on this stretch of road each time I went through town (six times in three days). I was stopped for going 7 mph over! Officer was young and arrogant!
