Immediately East of the town of Sandy, HWY 26 is currently a speed trap all the way East to Government Camp.
Clack County RPC and Cycles; Oregon State Patrol RPC and Cycles and on occasion City of Sandy Police RPC’s all work together on this stretch of Hwy nicknamed ‘ Blood Alley ‘.

Speed Limit is 55MPH, but due to construction, confusing signs show temp. limits of 45MPH – then around the next bend one will encounter a 55MPH sign…Beware also that traffic fines are double $ dollar amount on this stretch of Hwy.

Also, beware that there are many pull-offs used for hiding police cars. Recently patrols have been made with unmarked cars. Also recent patrols have been of the saturation variety.

Finally (the only good news) realize that GENERALLY one can travel at speeds of up to 65-70 MPH, provided there is not an active saturation/abatement program in effect. Also, More often than not, RPC’s cruise with their radar guns ‘ON’, meaning there is usually ample warning if you possess a good detector.
