Is it Legal for Traffic Police to Hide in Order to Catch Drivers?

Carrollton Personal Injury Lawyer
Written By Carrollton Injury Lawyer Joel Hudson

Yes, police officers are allowed to hide with a radar gun to catch drivers who are speeding. Tickets are still valid, when police hide out in private driveways, even if the police officer was not granted permission to use the driveway as a hideout. It is not entrapment when a patrol car is hidden from view while the police officer is running a radar gun. As frustrating as it may be, police officers are allowed to write tickets and citations for speeding even when you don’t see them in passing. 

Do Police Officers Really get Bonuses for Giving Tickets?

Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I’m Joel Hudson, the founder of Carrollton Injury Law, located at 4221 Medical Pkwy, Suite 300, Carrollton, TX 75010.

With over 25 years of experience practicing personal injury law, I’ve built my firm on a simple belief: there’s a better way to handle injury claims. It starts with treating you like a person—not a number—and continues with consistent communication throughout your entire case. You can reach me directly at (972) 360-9898 to discuss your situation—I’m here to listen.

I’ve seen how a single injury can ripple through every part of your life, affecting not just you but your family too. That’s why my approach is different. At Carrollton Injury Law, we don’t just chase settlements; we focus on you. I’ve found that giving clients the extra attention many Dallas law firms overlook leads to happier clients, smoother dealings with adjusters who appreciate the updates, and, ultimately, higher injury settlements in less time. My clients often call me the “personal” attorney because we care about maximizing your recovery while also helping you navigate the disruptions a car accident or injury brings—whether it’s medical bills, lost work, or simply getting back to normal.

I earned my Juris Doctor from Texas A&M University School of Law in 1998, after completing my Bachelor of Arts in Communications and Business at Texas Christian University in 1992. Since being admitted to practice in Texas in 1998, I’ve dedicated my career to fighting for injury victims across the state.

At Carrollton Injury Law, we live by our motto: “We put Personal back into Personal Injury Law.” It’s not just a tagline—it’s how we work, every day, for every client.
