State Highway SR 20 near State Highway SR 20 Philomath, Oregon

SR 20 runs E-W through Philomath, Oregon (pop. 4,000). The road is heavily trafficked, as many drivers pass through from Corvallis, Oregon or I-5 on their way to the Oregon coast and back. The speed limit through Philomath is 25 mph on the two-lane SR 20. The speed limit E and W of Philomath may be about 45-55. The police hide on the side streets and pull out behind a car and pace it. When I was caught, the police were hidden on a side street in a marked car at 1:30 am, there were two officers in the car, and there were several cars on SR 20 both behind and in front of me (at least 5-10).

State Highway 34 near Town Pump Philomath, Oregon

approaching from the east, Hwy 34 makes a jog to the left, as you enter the Main Street area of Philomath. There is a gas station (Town Pump) that closes early, and turns out ALL the lights; Cops sit there, in total darkness, with a gracefull view, straight down the highway, visibility of at least a mile. The speed-limit changes 3 times during this stretch, with the Cop only guessing, your location, and the related speed limit. With a distance of less the 200 feet between the last SPEED-35 and the first SPEED-25 sign, AND the SPEED-25 sign being partially obscured untill you are about 150 feet from it; this is like 'shooting fish in a barrel' with the local Court ready to assess the maximum fine allowed
