South Stage Road near Bellinger Lane

Jacksonville, Oregon•Jun 30, 2008•1 Comments

Coming west towards Jacksonville on open country road with a prevailing speed limit of about 45 and a typical flow at 50 – 55mph the speed limit drops suddenly to 25mph. Shortly after the sign and on a downhill where you are likely to not be dropping to 25 or even 35 just yet (as no signs of "urbaness" are immeadiatly visible) unless you are fairly agressively braking the local cops sit on the right side taking pictures. In short: When approaching Jacksonville look carefully for any 25mph signs and drop down to 30 promptly even if it looks like conditions are suitable for much more..

Comments:
This is a 'trap' only if you ignore the unmentioned sign that says "Reduced Speed Ahead" and the City Llimits sign. In the state of Oregon, the speed limit in any city is automatically 25 MPH unless otherwise posted. Cities are not even required to post 25 mph signs, but they usually do for tourists.
