I always knew this was the case … and Channel 4 confirmed it.
Pennsylvania/Nicholson Avenue, especially south of Rawson, is a speed trap.
Check out the “Speedbusters” story and video from WTMJ-TV here. From it:
If you’re a South Milwaukee police officer who patrols Nicholson Avenue, you don’t have to worry about writer’s block — you’ll write plenty of tickets.
“We know this is a fast stretch,” said Officer Mick Olson of the South Milwaukee Police Department. “This is one of the hot spots, if you will, where we know people typically are speeding.”
We learned about this location after a neighbor emailed us writing, “I am sick of people driving through here like it is either a freeway or a speedway.”
A speedway is about what we found when we tagged along with Officer Olson on this 25-mile an hour stretch.

The real question should be why isn’t the speed-limit 35mph on that stretch. That seems to be the norm anyways, and if you are doing the speed-limit you’ll have 5-6 cars riding you the entire time. You just have to make sure that if there is not a cop next to the bike path that there isn’t an Oak Creek SUV backed into the drive of the crick across the street between the woodline. By far the sneakiest spot to run radar in the area.
SM police also love to run radar on Rawson Ave. They will sit right behind the Rawson School sign and run radar on traffic heading West on Rawson and I’ve also seen them behind the trees on 16th and Rawson quite often in the mornings and late afternoons.
It is also very common to see them sitting in the parking lot next to Derango’s catching speeders/drunk drivers coming down the hill on N. Chicago where it is only 25mph. On any special enforcement weekend for DD it is a given that they will be there.
