Milwaukie, OR, northbound on 99E, 10400 block

Milwaukie, OregonMay 29, 20122 Comments

I got a ticket on May 9, 2012 at 2:41 pm, described as the 10400th block, which, on the inside lane, is sight distance from the 45 speed sign posted, obscured behind a green state highway sign. I happened to be on the outside lane, clocked at 42 mph, closest to the van, and I was snapped, as others, one beside me on the inside lane (not so easy to take a photo there), and others ahead of me, were accelerating faster than I was. I had carefully followed the 30mph limit and thought I was just "keeping up with traffic" at the exit point of the 30 posted. I think this is robbery! I respect posted speeds for safety and ethical reasons, but this IS BEYOND ETHICS! City of Milwaukie, this is such an obvious speed trap, I think you should be ashamed of yourself!

I was also received a citation at the same location. the van was actually on the 10300 block a few yards away from the 45 limit sign. The citation stated the 10400 block.

Definitely a speed trap. The white van is easy to spot at either end of the stretch of 99E that goes through Milwaukie's downtown area. The city has put a lot of work into connecting the downtown to the waterfront park and this stretch of 99E gets heavy bicycle and foot traffic. Slow down, don't lose your hard earned dollars to the City!
