The Hancock County sheriff's office likes to sit along State Route 30 and enforce the 45 mph speed limit. They like to sit at the bottom of the steep grade and enforce the speed limit. At night they like to sit with there all their lights off. The State Police also patrol this hill. The are there espically on Friday and Saturday nights since there are several bars along this hill and the like to pull people over that come out of these bars. The Chester Police Department also likes to watch the bottom of the hill since that starts there city limits.

Comment (8/2002): Theres several Hancock County deputies that sit in the Rt 30 area. Im not sure who they are but some of the ones who will not give you a break are car numbers are 120, 121, 122, 124. Some of these guys can be real rude and dont seem to care about who they give a ticket to. So be careful and try not to go one mile over the limit because they will ticket you.

City and County PD will sit at the ends of town where the speed limit changes to 25 mph and catch people speeding into town. City PD will not generally bother unless you are over 35 mph.

The county sherriff routinely sits in the median or at the intersection on US 30 just before the bridge between Ohio and West Virgina. The sherriff is very hard to spot visually due to a curve in the road from either direction.
