Pumpkin Time – Not Speeding Ticket Time!
It’s almost Halloween and that means it’s time to head out to the pumpkin patches on Sauvie Island. We took the fam out there this weekend and I couldn’t help but notice that the speed limit was all over the place and drivers were flying down the road.
Highway 30 is a tricky spot for drivers and is heavily trafficked by the Portland Police. Hwy 30 is a good place for them to catch speeders because, although it feels like an open highway – wide, flat, straight – it is most definitely not.
Down on Yeon Ave. (by all the warehouses and trains) the speed limit is 40. Then it goes up 45 and drops all the way down to 35 in the Linnton neighborhood before picking up again.
Keep one eye on your speedometer and the other one looking out laser-wielding traffic police!
Got a Speeding Ticket? Keep It Off Your Record.
Speeding tickets seem annoying but fairly harmless. Don’t be fooled. Aside from increased insurance costs, tickets can cost you your license.
In Oregon, 3 tickets in 18 months will prevent you from driving midnight to 5am. 4 tickets in 24 months will suspend your license for a month.
