Speed drops to 50 at City Limits and down to 35, watch for the Aberdeen cops from bridge to bridge, they always have someone pulled over. | |
Comment (1/2003): Oh, I forgot one thing. Whoever wrote the first comment obviousely does not know the Aberdeen village boundaries. Aberdeen extends from Three Mile Creek bridge through town to about 1/4 mile past the Simon Kenton bridge (old maysville bridge). Eagle Creek is in the Village of Ripley. | |
Comment (1/2003): Being a former police officer for this village, I can say that one will get a speeding ticket if they in fact are speeding. Most operators think it will be for 1-5 miles over the posted speed limit. The former chief of police retired a week ago. He was in office for a little over 9 years. He did not allow his officers to write tickets unless they were at least 12 miles over the posted speed limit. I however would write them for 15 miles an hour over the posted limit, and drop down to 12-13 miles over the posted speed in inclement weather. Maybe the speed needs to be raised to 45 miles per hour on a 4 lane highway through town, however the state regulates the speed and it most likely will remain 35. We are there to enforce the laws of the State of Ohio to protect other motorists from accidents etc, not just revenue enforcement agents like many people think. | |
Comment (3/2004): Of course you're all doing it for the revenue. If it wasn't for the revenue, you bastards would be out of business. Don't tell us you're writing tickets to protect motorists, because that's just more bullshit coming from you as well. | |

Aberdeen police like to sit on side streets along HWY.52 with NO LIGHTS on at night and will write for speed or not coming to complete stops at stop signs. Obvious entrapment. | |

Officer frequently sits at US 52 near the West Corporation Limits off of the road way right next to a small utility station, around 500 yards from the West Corporation Limit Sign. From the road, unless you look, you can not visualize the officer, because this "drive lane that he is setting in" sets below the road. The officer also does not have any lights on. This is noticed after dark. | |
