North Plains, Oregon Speed Traps

local police will sit behind pge sub station facing south dont roll to a stop at inter section or speed faster then 35 they will get you

City police religously enforce the 35 MPH speed on this street and when you approach the area of the elementary school you had better slow down. I know dozens of people who were issued tickets here with no leaway given the "offender".

The police set on the over pass and take radar and then radio it to the officers waiting on the highway!

Small town officer hides with hand help radar. Usually at night has his lights out and can be seen outside of his patrol vehicle next to the exit sighting his radar gun at oncoming traffic.

City police set up at Western underpass and catch vehicles going both ways on the divided 4 lane highway. Speed limit is 55, traffic flow is 65 to 70 until the highway passes through the city boundries where locals know to slow to 60 to 62. The town is not visible from the highway, so you think you are still in the country. This highway is the main Portland to coast highway. Strictly a money trap. An old friend was chief of police there for a while and he stopped the traps while he was there. He’s gone traps are back.
